MW and Digital question

I wanted to listen to radio 5 live at work yesterday, footy and all that. But I can get no MW reception in the office.
All I get is static and buzzing. There may well be too many lights, computers, electrics about for successfull reception????

So could I get radio 5 on a new digital radio with perfect reception? I am not buying one if it won't work.
NO to pasty tax We won!!!! Just shows that people power works! Don't be apathetic to your cause!

    I use a DAB to get radio 5 and 5 live sports extra at work, it is ok for me. You will need to make sure that you can get reception in your office at all though.

    have a look at http://www.ukdigitalradio.com/coverage/search/default.asp

    Assume you can't listen to it on your computer at work?
    Ever stop to think and forget to start again?

    Thanks. According to DAB, there is no coverage in that area! What a stupid thing that is. This is a town, there is no MW coverage for some reason. No DAB.
    The computer is out. I am not allowed to use the internet for 'personal use' If I was 5 live are not allowed to broadcast the football on the computer link.
