I now have in my possession a small world radio, Roberts, with battery operation for alarm and sleep functions, and a nifty little SW aerial in a gadget like a tape measure - which unfortunately does not fit in the little carry case. (Missing the free BBC World Service frequency guide advertised on the box, but that will have changed, anyway.)
And I am the owner of a brand new, obselete Roberts radio very like my last one, which should arrive on Saturday.
Total cost about what I was willing to pay for a new one. The make I prefer, but they don't get any money for them. That'll serve Ms we won't be making them any more right!
