Portable
digital radios - now on sale through Radio Times
They
may have sold out in the High Street but this week's Radio Times
has secured stock of the world's first mass-produced portable DAB
radio.
The
initial batch of the Video Logic Pure Evoke-1 disappeared in three
hours when the tuners went on sale in London's Oxford Street last
Wednesday morning.
However,
the RT Shop, on page 116 of the 10 - 16 August edition of Radio
Times, has sets priced at 拢99.95 plus a postage and insurance
charge of 拢2.49.
The
radio uses the latest digital technology to transmit stations free
of interference in regions of the country that are covered by DAB
broadcasts.
Each
mains-powered tuner measures 21 x 17.5 cm and includes a digital
display showing song titles and programme details.
It
is the first time that DAB transmissions have been available on
portable sets, rather than as hi-fi separates or PC plug-ins, and
the Pure Evoke-1 has received positive reviews so far in the press.
Also
available in this week's Radio Times, published on Tuesday 6 August,
is a revolutionary touch-screen portable radio, controlled by fingertips
or with the stylus provided. This costs 拢49.99.
All
goods will be delivered within 28 days of orders being received.
Please see the full terms and conditions inside the magazine for
further details.
