Budget DAB radio suggestions.

My trusty old FM radio bit the dust today so after a cheap and cheerful dab to replace it.
Doesn't need to be anything fancy as it's going in the shed ?

I bought myself a cheap Lemega CR2+ for the home office as I don’t want to hit my WiFi too much streaming radio while the other half is having conference calls.

Radio works well, but you need your own USB adapter, and it doesn’t switch off off, just off with a still shiny display on standby.

The cheaper one i tried the reception was awful so bought a Roberts one which is better. Worth trying ebay/marketplace/gumtree for a 2nd hand one, must be plenty that havent had much use

If you've a smart phone and your wifi reaches I'd be more tempted by a Bluetooth speaker? Download relevant app for station of choice and off you go.

Do you have mains power in the shed?

Well, that's me out of ideas.
I dont know why you don't want to use the powerlines adaptor and it's none of my business but I have an Alexa in my workshop and shed and they are brilliant. No adverts, no news, no waffling presenters, just music

No reason other than wanting a portable radio ?

My Android phone has a radio. I do not know if that uses data but I would expect not.

I got a John Lewis one for under £40 and it's been really good. Just checked though and out of stock so not much help! They do have this one though...

I’ve got a few Pure Evoke radios dotted around the house. Always feel like good quality.

 

[jim8flog]

I found just the thing for you on my local facebook market place

I needed a nee garage sound system as the old one gave up after 10 years.
Built my own with old car audio parts (ok and a cheap £25 DAB/BT head unit off Amazon.

Couple of old Alpine 6x9s and they still sound

Top tip, going to look at a.Top range Roberts for a bargain price, apparently it's too loud for their conservatory.
