Radio- the ultimate convenience source
Posted by: bdnyc on 17 January 2002
I recently had a mid winter run in with the flu which allowed me the chance to wallow around like a green house cat. This was one of those "weekends" where a big activity was going upstairs for some tea in between naps... What I discovered that has some semblance of relevence to you folks was what a great resource a good tuner was. I left my NAT 01 dialed to my favorite local station, WFUV-FM in NY 90.7 (or on the web at WFUV.ORG. for those of you in the UK) and simply enjoyed the varied music all day long. The tuner is something I had appreciated before, but since my life is more hectic than I would prefer, I often listen to CD's or LP's more than the radio when I am in the mood for tunes. What this proved to me was how utterly natural the Naim tuners are. It was great to hear a full day of music; cool new songs, old musty favorites, and all the rest.
So, while the flu meant my coworkers had a bit more work, I got a chance to listen to music all day. Seems like a good idea, if I could figure out how to do it more often...
