So, because my work computer has no sound card in it i NEED some way of listening to Test Match Special at work (and other places not my house actually), but what is the best option? which is more likely to be switched off first, DAB or LW???? I read articles that says that DAB is bobbins and a betamaxy kind of product, and that it might be superceded...

Poll #1414762 wireless
Open to: All, detailed results viewable to: All, participants: 1

which is better?



what i SHOULD'VE DONE was pick up one of the SIX radiogrammes* (actually 5 radiogrammes and one TELEVISIONRADIOGRAMME!!!!) that were being skipped up the road from my house last week, but i thought, nah, don't need more cr@p in my house. also not very portable...


*what do you mean "what's a radiogramme?"??? bloody kids...

The thought of a skip full of radiogrammes made me wince. But I have too much cr@p in my house too.

How will sailors listen to the shipping forecast if LW dies?

I'd quite like a radiogramme to match my flip-out wood+formica dining table.

LW ain't going anywhere, I reckon.

yeah, that's what i was thinking. i'd imagine that R4 LW will be the last thing to go when armageddon finally descends and that makes it a fine long term investment ;)

The only thing I might worry about is the location of TMS - I remember it being on Radio 3 back in the day, and was highly miffed when they changed it just after I got a swanky FM/MW only tuner for wobs - but this won't be a problem with the Roberts.

Oh, I know that's where it is now! It's just that it hasn't *always* been there, and it might not be in the future, innit?
