Another possibility is to use one with a Favourites facility. My old
Goodmans GDB3 (there are several clones of this) will let you set up
channels as favourites then step through them with P+ and P- buttons.
You don't really need a display for two radio stations!


I've been using a cheap Philips DTTV box as a 'radio tuner' for some time.
Not really been hampered by the lack of a display.

Need the display with a Nokia, though. That won't let you switch between
'TV' and 'sound radio' stations simply by typing in the station number. You
have to use the 'navigation' (menus). Similarly, refuses to let you select
a list of 'favourites' that include both. Daft bit of ergonomics.

Slainte,
