I do love our Sangean WiFi Internet Radio. I am listening to President Obama speak in Ghana on the BBC’s World Service. We listen to the BBC’s Five Live football call in show; even obscure local radio stations in the UK.
And we’ve only scratched the surface. We impressed a friend who had just been to Brazil by playing a Brazilian radio station. I can brush up on my French by listening to stations out of Paris.
While it’s not perfect — it goes quiet occasionally, with the signal on the front panel displaying the annoying word: “Buffering.”
But it’s a great connection to the outside world.
