DAB Radio Suggestion

jamest · 2 Aug 2009 at 15:13

Can anyone suggest a DAB radio for my dad?

It needs to be around the £100 mark and will be used almost solely in the garden for listening to the radio. They don't have ipod and won't be using it for playing CD's.

They live in the sticks with quite a large garden so they like to have it pretty loud.

Thanks in advance

I am looking at getting this soon:

It gets very good reviews and people say it can go pretty loud for it'd diminutive stature.

I'd strongly recommend getting something that supports DAB+ if you want it to still be useful in a few years.

I've got a few DAB radios around the house, the latest one I bought was a SolarDAB - Its very good. The Solar panel doesnt get much sun in my bathroom, but it kinda trickle charges the batterys so you dont have to recharge them very often.
