Frequently asked questions about Dire Straits live
No — Dire Straits broadcasts over the internet only, so there is no frequency to find on a set. That is a deliberate trade: an online station skips the cost of a broadcast licence and reaches the whole country from day one, but it needs a connection at the listener's end. Press play above and it runs in the browser.
Yes, and increasingly. British R&B, grime and afroswing have their own scenes and their own charts, and stations working in this territory generally give domestic artists real weight rather than treating them as an afterthought.
Dire Straits is a UK-wide service rather than a local one, so it carries the same output across the country with no regional opt-outs.
No. Dire Straits plays directly in the browser with nothing to download and no account to create. It works the same on Android, iPhone and desktop.
Less than most people expect. Streaming Dire Straits runs at roughly 30 to 60 MB an hour depending on the bitrate, well below video.
