DAB Clock Radio: Best stations to start your day
You’re sleeping peacefully, lost within the slumber of the evening when, suddenly, out of the clear silence comes the sound of that song you can’t stand polluted by a patina of static. What a way to start the day. Wouldn’t it be nice to start the day with a positive, rather than a negative?
Well, now you can. Pick yourself up a DAB clock radio and set it to one of these five UK-based radio stations. Depending on your personal tastes, at least one of these stations will aim to please.
