Hi, does anybody know any frequencies I can find Country Music on in the south please?

I've been given a DAB radio which also has FM if that helps?

TIA

    Sorry but I don't think there are any country radio stations on FM or DAB

    I rather thought that might be the case as I had done the obligatory Googling before asking here.

    Thanks.

    I think there might be a country radio show on BBC radio 2

    If you want a proper station I think you'll need an internet radio, where there is a much greater range.

    My DAB radio is interweb connected and there are thousands, over ten thousand last time I looked, of specialist stations available.

    Some are rubbish some, are pure gold. I have several favourites for different types of music and don't often listen to anything else.

    Thanks for your comments, do you think this one is OK? It's currently half price. http://www.amazon.co.uk/Ocean-Digital-Internet-Receiver-Connection/dp/B00ZTFZB28/ref=sr_1_18?ie=UTF8&qid=1436705659&sr=8-18-spons&keywords=internet+radio

    Would it connect to my wifi at home?

    Just realised that the one I looked at on Amazon doesn't appear to have batteries, which I want, so that I can listen to the radio in the garden.

    You can get a DAB app for your phone too.

    Try some of the small local stations.

    I am in Belfast but we have a few, Downtown is one which has special country hours usually in the evenings. My cousin used to work as a DJ for them that is how I know. He has since moved to another station which does not do country at all.
