Does anyone make a PVR that can be used for radio (FM or DAB)? I used to
use a TV PVR but Radio 3 is no longer broadcast on DTT in Scotland in the
evenings. Obviously I could uses a tuner and a tape recorder (I have all
kinds) but I like the EPG one-touch facility the PVR offers.

If you obtain one of the PVRs that has a built in DVD recorder, you will
probably find that it also has several inputs for external sources. There's
nothing to stop you feeding audio on its own to one of them.

This isn't quite what you are asking about, and it wasn't what I was asking
about when it was brought to my attention, but if you like recording radio
this is the most amazing bit of software.

Looks interesting. I've simply been recording the streamed audio
'manually' using Audacity.

I used to get stuff manually too, but using Total Recorder, but I haven't
since I found this. You can either get programmes individually or you can
"subscribe" to your favourite programmes and they just appear like magic as
soon as they become available. It will also get podcasts.

Thanks for posting that link - it does seem an excellent bit of software.

Might be easier to go down the satellite route? Equipment made in bulk
tends to be much cheaper than low demand stuff.

Or, of course, use your computer.

Records a transmission which doesn't exist?
