Hi @undeterred965

It seems this is a known python3.9/pipx bug?

pypa/pipx#702

Can you please try this?

cd /home/pi/.config/pyradio/data/.cache/
unzip pyradio-0.9.2.13.zip
cd pyradio-0.9.2.13/devel
sed -i 's/pipx install /python3 -m pipx install /' build_install_pyradio
cd ..
./devel/build_install_pyradio

Thanks for getting back to me so quickly.
Install seemed to go fine. I received the following message

Successfully installed pyradio-0.9.2.13

This is great!
Can you actually execute pyradio?

[undeterred965]

Executed and played radio stream no4 Celtic from the UK.
Thanks for your help.

Ok, great!
I'm updating the installation script!

Closing this one
Thank you for reporting!
