Hi all, Do any of you know how to listen to Radio 5 Live (909, 693 medium wave) whilst abroad? I'm watching football in Vietnam but the commentary is in Vietnamese. It doesn't seem to work on the beeb website. Do any of you know any other English commentaries via the web out there? I can't post in the Soccer forum for some…

I can't post in the Soccer forum for some reason.

All the BBC streams are listed here: http://bbcstreams.com/

Although I have heard 5live uses geolocking because of their rights to broadcast sports events..

I think since football changed and became all about money, the other side of that coin is that the BBC is not allowed to broadcast some money oops football matches live due to the holders of the broadcasting rights being quite litigious about it all!.

Are you saying there's a way to hear 5 Live (as it's heard in the UK) on a Roberts 202? Would appreciate details.
