I had another radio/tape deck that I used to place outside the bathroom door whenever I had a bath/shower. The cord wasn't long enough to reach in the bathroom, so it always sat outside the door turned up full.
Not sure how old you are or when the story is set, but could Radio 1 have been broadcast on FM and MW an you had a radio tuned to each? Would that account for a lag in transmission?
I also heard that live TV uses a 2-second "safety zone" in case crank callers get through an insult the guest band (famously, Matt Bianco), radio ever operate such a policy?
Possibilities?
