This digital radio aims to do for the radio market what Sky+ has done for TV. It schedules, controls and records your favourite radio shows so that you can listen to them when it is convenient.

Using the electronic programme guide button, it is possible to see what programs are being broadcast on the various radio channels currently available on DAB, and when.

Once the programme you wish to record is selected, the radio will record it on the supplied 64Mb memory card.

Not all stations offer these programme listings but the information for those that do is easily accessible by using the scrolling button at the centre. This effectively gives users their own radio station, with shows available at their leisure.

It is possible to fit about one hour of programming on the supplied memory card, before having to insert another one or delete recordings.

Manufacturer: Morphy Richards
