Apparently it's trivially easy to receive Israel's DVB-T channels if you are in the southern coast of the Cyprus. Actually it would be better if we had a second aerial so that my brothers can keep watching their football matches with Greek commentary.

Many smartphones have FM-tuner and it helps a lot in case you have slow internet which is a case here especially in rural areas. LTE is not so widespread here yet...
I've thought that would be a good idea, since it's probably cheap and easy to install, but now that LTE is common in big cities at least, it seems redundant. But it's good to know Internet radio is thriving.Lada wrote:Many smartphones have FM-tuner and it helps a lot in case you have slow internet which is a case here especially in rural areas.

This is probably a dumb question, but: What does Estonian sound like to Finns? Can you understand it at all? Is it like Scots, or more like Dutch?Oh, in December I mostly listen to the Christmas song frequency. This year, after the people who run the Christmas station used up their time slot on that frequency, next in line was an Estonian station, Finest FM I think they called it, aimed at Estonians who live in Finland. I found it so interesting I listened to it throughout their slot, a month or two. They played Estonian pop music and a lot of dance, which you don't get that much of in Finnish radio stations. It was a lot more energetic than what I'm used to. Also nice to listen to them talk in Estonian.
