I borrowed a friends Goodman digital radio to see if it would work in our house, it would only work in an upstairs bedroom window, I want to use it in the kitchen which is down stairs at the back of the house, the walls are stone and are about 18" thick, we are in a strong digital signal area.
The radio I would like is about £50 from Currys but they will not take it back if it doesn't work, i would buy a more expensive one if it would work but can't afford to risk it,
is there any way I could increase the strength of the signal with an internal areal?
any other options?

Most decent DAB radios will have an external aerial socket so that you can connect an external aerial like these here.
That will be your best bet to get reception in that location. You may find that it will work fine with an aerial in the loft.:doh: Blue text on this forum usually signifies hyperlinks, so click on them!..:wall:0 -

The Pure Evoke has an aerial socket (you just unscrew the telescopic aerial), and is a very good DAB radio.
