I want to listen to BBC World Service while I am on contract in Germany, e.g. in Frankfurt. Any ideas how to do this? I have a DAB radio and a LW/MW/SW/FM radio. But:
1. The BBC doesn't do short wave to Europe any more.
2. Medium wave (648) doesn't reach this far.
3. Long wave (198) is now aimed at the UK, not Europe, so doesn't reach this far any more.
4. DRM supposedly does not reach this far, and I don't want to buy a DRM receiver just to find out. No plans to extend DRM in Europe.
5. I'm in hotels so I can't put up a satellite dish.
6. German hotels don't usually offer it on their TV.
7. I don't have an internet connection.
8. I can't afford to listen on a mobile phone.
Or do I need to look at other countries' broadcasters for English, e.g. Voice of America, Radio Beijing, etc?
