ciderhead_sumpter Posted February 2, 2008 Report Share Posted February 2, 2008 Ok I don't know an awful lot about digital radio but after seeing one on offer for £15 or so I thought I might aswell go for it. Does this mean I can pickup BBC radio bristol anywhere in the country? Being in Pompey I obviously can't get it on a normal radio so it would be worth it Thx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Being in Pompey I obviously can't get it on a normal radio so it would be worth it ThxI very much doubt it, you can pick up local stations ie in Bristol you can get Radio Bristol, Star, GWR but the only other local station (which is not local to Bristol) is Heart FM, which I think is standard for all DAB radios. But I am no expert on it :noexpression: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
out of harms way Posted February 2, 2008 Report Share Posted February 2, 2008 I'm in Manchester and can't get Radio Bristol on my digital radio - so I doubt if you will either. However, you will be able to get 5-live Xtra who concentrate on Championship football on Saturday afternoons. We've been the main commentary game a few times and they always seem to have people at the Gate to give us coverage. Still worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Dazzler Posted February 2, 2008 Report Share Posted February 2, 2008 Of course you get can Radio Bristol anywhere in the world on-line (except of course match commentary!). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoff65 Posted February 2, 2008 Report Share Posted February 2, 2008 When you set up your digital radio it searches for stations - the strength of the radio bristol signal will not reach your local transmitter so don't buy it for that sole purpose.
