Default A FreeView tuner for radio.

A pal has a small manufacturing facility where the radio is on all day.
It's been cobbled together using his Hi-Fi throw outs but last time I
heard it sounded remarkably good. The speakers are a rather kicked pair of
Tannoy Yorks slung from a roof truss and driven by a Quad 303. ;-) It's
mainly on R1 FM with occasional bursts of R5 for footie. The tuner,
branded Goodmans is pretty old and has died.

It occurred to me since the MW reception is pretty diabolical due to
interference from the machines etc, that a FreeView tuner might be an easy
and cheap option. There is a UHF aerial feed available.

Any thoughts on make for something reliable and stable and cheap?
