Pure Oasis. Cracking piece of kit: showerproof, damn loud (important
in a shower)

I cannot for the life of me image why anyone needs a radio in a shower!

To listen to The Archers, of course! :-)

Nor can I see why anyone needs to use DAB for R3 or R4, esp if they
need to run it off batteries.

Interesting. I've always had terrible problems indoors with multipath
interference on FM: wherever I moved it'd make a horrible fizzing
sound. I would re-orientate the antenna, whereupon it'd make the
fizzing noise when I moved somewhere else. I've still got FM
portables, but I have no intention of using them as long as the DAB
keeps working.
