"The big difference between Anorak Nation and the many other anoraky boards is that the discussion can get into the finer details of subjects 'cos there's a lot of experts, good ideas and wonderful experiences being shared. It's all with a good sense of fun, friendship and respect. Most importantly Anorak Nation has none of the gratuitous bullying and victimisation that other places allow or encourage."

Anorak Nation: free thought, free speech, free radio...
We are a collective ('Nation') of enthusiasts ('Anoraks') of gadgets, boys toys, technology, and communication, especially real radio – free radio born of the pirate radio stations.
If you are an early adopter, putting all your cash into the purchase of the next big thing in technology, a collector and lover of gizmos old or new, then you've found your home.
It's also your home if you're tired of bland, boringly presented, syndicated radio stations run by a badly programmed computer, playing the same few auditorium tested songs over and over again.
Centred on our Discussion, our space offers feeds of UK broadcasting and new technologies news, debate and lively exchanges of views and more.
Remember: You cannot see the current poll, start a message or reply to others unless you are logged-in.
