Does any use this radio in Spain and what (english language) stations do you get? How about BBC or RTE?

Hi Hip Priest!

Please tell us. Just what is a Worldspace radio? Is it a shortwave radio or maybe a satellite radio?

AHA! I just found it @ http://www.worldspace.com . They say: WOW! How cool is that?!

Hi Madridman, I have read about "worldspace" radio in the UK media. It seems to be a network of digitally broadcast (via satellite) stations. At the moment the no. of stations available seems limited so i am keen to know what ones anyone can get in Spain. Apparently Hitachi have a good model available for about €220 which is a lot to pay for a radio so I am keen to know what benefits it has for Spanish residents. Each radio has a miniature satellite dish, which must be pointing in the right direction straight at the sky to get the signal. I know I won't get RTE signal all day but they do carry a channel called WRN which has a couple of hours each from different stations: Irish, Polish , Canadian, Swedish etc.
