This is something I stumbled upon first thing over coffee
As I’ve previously posted on other topics, to suggest that I’m not exactly a fan of TV would be an understatement. Radio however is an entirely different matter! I’ve not tried this yet but potentially it looks fascinating. It seems that you can hook it up from a mobile phone and listen on echo dot. I’m not sure if the same applies using windows 11 on the laptop but I’ll check it out!
Edit
Just discovered that worldwide stations are blocked in The UK, only domestic stations are available!
I might have to look for an alternative!
It worked perfectly well when I was in the UK both for live radio (though the time difference was a bit of a bugger) and podcasts etc
You could download that, it’s free, you might even hear me - I often ring up the Illawarra local radio.
I use it all the time travelling an actually radio is a thing of the past, though it has to be said there is about a 2 minute delay compared to the on air broadcast so not much good for quizzes but if you ring up about an issue it is fine.
Interesting!
Thanks Bruce, I’ll check it out this evening!
Years ago I used to listen to the Blugrass Country station which I’m happy to see is still going!
My only contact with the outside world is through a couple of hours each day of TV and you folks on here…Oh, and Mrs Fox telling me what gossip she has gleaned from the neighbours.
