My trusty Sony pocket transistor radio has finally died . What are you guys using ? Don't want to pay the earth but must have decent AM reception for talksport, thanks 👍

A little more money but Roberts do some great rechargeable DAB radio's. Digital reception is so much better and you'll save a fortune in batteries. Sports DAB is about £60

I use a small Outwell wind-up radio with a built-in solar panel. It has AM and FM reception. It has served me well for years.

I recently got an AZATOM Pro Sports S1 DAB Digital Portable FM Radio from Amazon. Good reviews and also works as a portable radio without the need for earphones.

I have used a 'Pure Move T4' DAB for the last 2 years and its awesome. Sound quality is good enough to use it cranked up in the bait making room and the battery lasts ages. It charges off a usb so no batteries to buy. Size wise Its small enough to fit in your pocket.
RRp is around £120 but I paid £50 on fleabay for new one boxed.

Thanks gents, some great suggestions there . I ended up going the DAB route and ordering the Azatom . Although I like the Roberts I couldn't justify the price for how often I'd use it . So went for the Azatom , good price and 3 year guarantee so worth a punt , thanks .

I got one of these last year and although unbranded, you can't beat the functions for the money, DAB, FM, USB input, mem card input and can be a bluetooth speaker:
