Hi All,
I want to buy a simple FM/AM radio which I can pack in my suitcase to take with me to my place of self isolation in the UK. Any useful suggestions of where I could buy a smallish one, in Paphos, please?

Thank you.
Dee

Nicolaou Electronics on Kaningos Str, always found them very helpful and its like an Aladdin's cave inside.

I know that DAB Radio isn't available in CY, but if you can get one with DAB on, then it may give you more choice once in the UK

If you have a decent DAB signal to pick up you get a much better listen. If you haven't got a DAB signal it is not so useful.

DAB is all over the UK, but non-existent in Cyprus.
