Is there any point in taking a digital radio out to Kalkan? Does anyone know of any digital stations. We would like to listen to BBC radio 2 is this possible? with any type of radio.

The only way I know is via internet radio, and it works, if you have a smart phone get a app like 'tunein' or iplayer see http://iplayerhelp.external.bbc.co.uk/help/playing_radio_progs/mobileradio (http://iplayerhelp.external.bbc.co.uk/help/playing_radio_progs/mobileradio), make sure you have data roaming turned off! and connect to any of the multitude free wifis around Kalkan, nearly all bars, cafes, restaurants hotels and many villas and apartments have free wifi.

Ask yourself, can I pick up Turkish stations on my digital radio whist in the UK? No.
The only solution is to stream Radio 2 over the internet using something like iPlayer Radio.

There is an old thread on this link that may help. NB www.kalkanradio is no longer available.
