The shop I work in is out in the middle of nowhere. Metal building down in a valley. Mountains on all sides and 200 foot tall silos blocking the view to the south west.......conventional AM and FM radio reception is impossible in spite of our best efforts. We can only get one station and the signal is so weak that it's mostly static. No cell phone reception either. But we do have Wi-Fi in the building......so we are considering buying a Wi-Fi radio but none of us are familiar with them. Any advice on wi-fi radios in general would be appreciated, along with info on stations that stream WVU sports. Thanks in advance.

Google "C.Crane". Bob Crane has been in the radio business for decades. Excellent customer service. He's the kind of guy who will walk you through setting the thing up over the phone if it comes to that.

The last time I checked he had 3 flavors wifi recievers for sale running between 120 and 150 bucks.
