Digital Radio Blues

If you do use batteries in your DAB radio, you realise how much more electricity they use than non-DAB. Can't use them in the car. How is that a good idea?

TV is in the sitting room, radio in the kitchen. I can't leave the sitting room door open during the day, so can't use the tv to listen to the radio, if you know what I mean.

It's ok at the moment, completely burble free!

We (well Dh actually) can't listen to his football team on DAB so we have a really tatty, paint spattered radio that lives in the playroom.

I've found listening to the radio on the tv works best but, if you have no tv, that wouldn't work either.

Mine burbles when my laptops too close, but I presume you've thought of that.

I bought a DAB digital radio so I could listen to the Archers in my greenhouse. I use rechargeable batteries and so far I haven't had any problems. Once the winter sets in I won't be using it so it'll probably give me a hard time next spring when I want to escape.

it's strange, isn't it? I can hear it in my head with a particular rhythm, but of course others will read/hear it in a completely different one!

Still bloody pissed off about it though!

Thanks, phoenix
I was going to put in a few Duh duh duh de duhs when the b***dy thing posted itself.

Respect, merlot !

The noise is a pain,
Disconnect, kill it’s brain.
Make a cuppa put on a CD
Wait a bit while you drink up the tea
Check the batteries - Reboot, that’s the plan
Fingers crossed , Auto tune if you can.
If you still get a noise and it’s more of a din
Give up on the tea, pour yourself a large gin.

Aha so it's not just mine that's crap terrible then, thought it was down to the reception area.
