It's not mars you know!

Yes a normal fm/am radio will work fine - doubt a DAB one will work though - maybe someone else can confirm...

Ok thanks just thought they work different signals etc which would allow you to not get it with a uk one but only an oz radio,thanks again

Hi Brian, yes they will work fine.

Where are you moving to? You will be able to use FM & MW no problem but I believe LW is much more of a European thing. SW of course works globally. I'm looking forward to rigging up my world band radio and trying to catch BBC WS aimed at SE Asia.

all me a geek (lol) but here is my hit list for my radio when I arrive in September
