giddyup Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 I can't be bothered with radio in Pattaya because the signals are so weak. I have an endless collection of MP3 CD's that I play in the car and at home. Also, no advertising drivel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JurgenG Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 I only listen to the radio in the car and the stations are preset. From memory, I'll check later, my favorite stations in Bangkok are 105.2 and 107 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WilliaminBKK Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 I gave up trying, with my Apple products I'm set for music and I treated myself to a Tivoli Internet radio so I can listen to stations anywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wayned Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 I listen to 108.0 in the car. That's because I use a MP3 player/FM transmitter plugged into the cigarette lighter that plays music that I record on a flash drive. I tune it to 108.0, an unused frequency in my area. In the house, I listen to stations provided on True visions, usually 202, soft music. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does that work in a car? Sadly no it is connected to the internet, Tivoli is a great brand up there with BOSE. It's NOT cheap but the sound is fantastic.

I don't believe anything that True says other than they will cut it off if you don't pay even if they forget to send you a bill!

They are spasmodic about sending bills and when I question why I haven't received one, they tell me I should remember when I have to pay! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
