First -
Home is a basic, Edwardian 2-up, 2-down end-of terrace with a bit sticking out the back (the South Wing!) holding the kitchen and
en-suite bathroom. The front faces roughly North.
I have four wireless receivers, all ordinary a.m./f.m. transistor radios all on f.m., usually tuned to Radios Three or Four with occasional excursions down to Two.
They are No.1 in the kitchen, No.2 front room and No.3 back bedroom, the one I normally use. The No.4 is of course in the workshop, down the garden.
The problem is the variable quality of reception. Nos. 3 (a modern digitally-controlled radio /clock/alarm) and 4 are fine most of the time.
