How to get radio on Bose speaker

[trimar99]

Hey, I went to the drive in last weekend and used a really old radio to listen to the movie, then I wondered about my Bose speaker which has really good sound quality. Is there some sort of device that adds radio functionality to a normal speaker? I'd really like to use the Bose next time I go.

So, was the radio FM? You could use your bluetooth phone and tune into the radio frequency..connect the phone to the Bose?

And how do you get radio on an iPhone?

Lol...With an app! I dunno about iphone specifically.. but android always had an FM radio app.. i'd look for something similar in the app store. Chances are there are lots of them.
Actually, i just quickly googles it... loads of them..

Then problem is that we have to cross the border to get there, so we can't use data...

Then.. any battery radio.. you'll need a stereo cable with a 3.5mm jack on either end. Headphones output from the radio - goes into the Bose line in.
I don't know which Bose you have.. I have a Soundlink mini and it has a line-in.. assuming your Bose has a line-in too, this should work.

I'll try that next time, thanks.
