Default ? 'BBC Vision Trial' on DAB

Whilst scanning through the DAB station list on my Pure Evoke Flow radio, I
spied '? BBC Vision Trial', on selecting it I was informed, 'Station Off
Air', it then switched to R1.. what's all that about then?

The Pure DAB radios tend to accumulate a list of all stations they have
ever seen, and display them even after they have long since gone away.

Cheers Andy, although It's something that's only appeared within the last

Is there a way of clearing dead stations out of memory?

Surprisingly an autotune doesn't clear them, you have to disconnect the
power (after removing chargepak if fitted).
