Test Match Special in Greece??

Hi folks

This maybe an incredibly stupid question, but hey ho!

I'm off to Greece for couple of weeks holiday, smack bang in the middle of the Ashes ( i know, v bad planning on OH part!!!). So I was wondering if I can receive TMS (198LW) whilst relaxing on a small but beautifully formed Greek island??

Really don't want to miss the matches, especially the joy that is TMS, particularly whilst lying by a pool with G&T in hand :D

Cheers
Ellie

    Hi
    If you've got Real Player installed on your PC you can do:-
    File > Open Location
    Then copy and paste this URL into it:-
    rtsp://rmlive-acl.bbc.co.uk/bbc-rbs/rmlive-acl/farm/live24/bbc_ami/radio4/radio4lw_nb_live.ra

    You should then hear Radio 4 Long Wave playing after a few seconds.
    But I'm not sure whether this will still work when abroad.
    If you haven't got Real Player installed then it might work with Windows Media Player or VLC media player.
    :cool:
