Where I live there is very poor FM and DAB reception. T'wife loves to
listen to Radio4, has it going all day, but it's a bit of a struggle

I have an old laptop that has a broken screen. My idea is to use that
to stream radio4 over tinternet via wifi through the home.

Just radio4. Turn laptop on, sound comes forth. Turn it off, it goes
quiet. Got to be simple. Volume buttons would be nice.

So, any ideas how?

An O2 Joggler with the squeezebox distro installed. (or reflashed back to the original OS)

Make me an offer...

(It's an O2 Joggler with the OpenPeak firmware installed - I've not reflashed it, but instructrions are here: http://birdslikewires.co.uk/articles/squeezeplay-os
