97.5 is QBS, part English, part French, but even the English service is studded with Country & Western and Jazz so not good (unless you like listening to in-bred banjo players). Much better is Dubai english service, I think on 106, but reception is patchy. There's also the Bahrain service, I think 99.4 or somewhere around there, also better than QBS where the newsreaders dont even speak English and talk about 'Thigh-land' (Thailand). I also just found one called 'easy listening FM', can't remember exact bandwidth but arround 94 I think. Or get some good CDs!
