Freeview PVR that can record radio,options?   
Much to the surprise of some no doubt my trusty Pace Twin has
performed reliably over the past couple of years and continues to do
so.
I tend to use it for recording the Radio channels as much as anything.
 Wishing to do the same at a friends house I have  found that at least
one of the current crop of freeview PVrs that are on sale will not
record the Radio channels. That has gone back to the retailer.
Can any one recommend one which will record the radio channels?

And a Topfield 5800 does.

So which one doesn't?

Cannot remember the exact model now but it was a Sagem.
Fairly cheap unit as I my friends property is still officially a Non
reception area  according to the Post code checker and I did not want
to gamble on anything too expensive.
In fact the box pulled everything in Rock solid   some  30miles from
Rowridge in a SW direction to a location somewhat in a shadow of
higher ground.  This on a 15 year old aerial and cable which I
anticipated that would need some work.
Recorded fine on vision chanels but had this quirk that it would not
record the freeview radio channels.
I would have forgiven any box for not working in the location but one
that has such a quirk that is not mentioned in the sales blurb i find
annoying.
