I've not seen one for years, I suspect you may well be struggling to find one. Presumably you're wanting this for size reasons?, and not in the hope of reduced cost.

car boot sale is probably your best bet

Been into Comet/currys/argos,no luck

unless I can get small I-Pod type fingee
that can record FM/MW onto a hard drive in the
I-Pod type fingee

Any reason why it must not include a CD player?

I was able to get one of these;

from John Lewis a couple of years ago. Might be worth trying them or a local independent electrical store.

If you don't mind it being second-hand, it may be worthwhile joining your local Freecycle and posting a 'wanted' notice.

Good luck with your search.

just to say thanks for all your advice

I'm going for the argos one for 9:99
I would love to have tried getting a free cycle radio cassette recorder
but a well used cassette recorder some times has problems with the wheels and cogs turning round
considering the radio cassette recorder I will be using it when its not connected to the mains

Could I ask about batteries?
Does it make any difference if its C or D batteries powered
Do C(or D) batteries last longer hold thier charge longer
than the other one
Thanks

[gomezz]

You get more bang for your buck with D's.

I bought the Argos one

Put the four D fully charged rechargly batteries in
and a brand new 120 cassette in
and started to record
As the present time I recorded three seperate one hour radio programmes
seems a very good buy at ten quid

thanks again every one

ARGOS stand by to get your cassette recorder returned
