FM receiver for VP......does it exist? [:-/]

I don't know if it exists, but is there an FM receiver for the VP? I would love to be able to listen to the radio with my VP.

Thanks in advance

Why that is illegal? Where is problem? You can buy a lot portable FM receivers here. And with some receivers you could redord the music or anything into MP3.

For example the Albrecht DAB Radio.

Think people are talking about diferent things - FM receivers are not illegal in Britain, though I haven't seen any available for the VP. A vague possibility is that the fm transmitter built into the remotes of some MD players will work, but that's a very long shot. What are illegal in the UK are FM transmitters, which allow you to play your VP on a radio (essentially your own pirate radio station), as they conflict with FM licensing laws. Hope that helps!

Ahh, that's true. I remember on a thread here in CV about that problem.
