Thanks, but what this do? MusicVolumeOnNews=0.8

"Volume on News" is the amount by which the music in the Radio Station folder (played as random tracks) dips, or fades when a scripted broadcast, or programme from the "Events.ini" folder starts to play. It's best set as low as poss - try 0.1, otherwise you may hear the random tracks in the background of the scripted broadcast.

I tend not to mix scripted and random. I have some stations which are just randomised programmes and others which are purely scripted, so "Volume on News" becomes irrelevant.

And if you really don't feel like doing it by hand, check out the RadioStationManager link in my sig. It automates a ton of the work involved in creating radio stations (scripted and non-scripted) and eliminates a couple of problems that cause things from listening to the same news over and over up to CTDs.
