My niece is if fun of opening the radio when she is going to bed,which is so opposite
to all of us in the house because it is so annoying to hear even a small noise during the night,when you are sleeping please do not disturb others with your snoring, what more with the open radio.I hate an open radio during bedtime,even when I take a nap
during the afternoon,it is best without any forms of noise,because your body and soul
can really relax and feel refreshed afterward.

I haven't tried sleeping at night with an open radio. I would be worried about the electric bill. 
I do take afternoon naps with open radio sometimes. I tune in to our local jazz station and the mellow jazz music is really soothing. When I nap and wake up with that station on, I feel very light and calm and I've never had any better sleep than that.

Thank you very much for the response.You are true that when going to bed there is no need to open the radio,because it is a waste of electricity,and sooner or later once you are already past asleep the music you hear could become a headache when your electrical bill knocks at your door step.It is just fine to hear music when it is during the afternoon nap because mellow sounds are soothing to the ears,but never works for me during the night.I wish you a good day..................

Thank you very much for the response.We are the same sometimes during my nap in the afternoon,there is a mellow music,but during the night I forbid the opening of the radio,because it will be a shame to the neighbors that they will be disturbed in their sleep,so as my sleep would be disturb, also.

I prefer to sleep in complete silence, but when there are noises that bother me, I put music in a low volume, so it can cover that noise and help me to sleep. Music always helps when you have problems to sleep, but the radio might be annoying, as suddenly some broadcaster can start talking.

Thank you very much for the response.I respected your privacy,also,as I respected the privacy of my own self,that is why I am very aware of other people who likes to open their radios during bedtime,which is a no no to my attitude.They are just testing my temper,which is not a very good gesture.

I love to sleep with the radio on! When I fall asleep with the radio or television on, after my body gets enough sleep, the noise will wake me up. Otherwise, I oversleep. And when I'm woke up by radio, and not just on my own, I feel more rested during the day.

Thank you very much for the response.That is your own preference,which I thought could never work with my sleeping attitude,because I like no noises at all,but it does not mean I do not like music,of course I am a music lover.

Thank you very much for the response.I can not really apply that habit to myself,due to the fact that we are many in the room.Some like to hear some music,but others are opposed to opening the radio.It is really very hard to sleep with an open radio because I can not slept right away,which makes me feel light headed and angry with the sounds roaming the room.The electric bill will also increased because it is not the right time to hear music,so we must also let the radio take some rest.

Hi berting, I will switch off my radio before going to bed at night time. But I would like to keep on listening to songs on air when having nap. I just like turn on the channel which will keep on playing songs most of the time the whole day. And of course this will never make me to feel annoyed if it's fixed with the lower and comfortable volume 
But I have to turn off the radio during bedtime, for my husband can't sleep nicely with radio on. 
he is never aware hat sometimes I'm awakened by his slight snore 
If with the radio surely this will not affect my sleep. Luckily he usually will stop snore after a short while and I therefore keep on enjoy my sound sleep...

Thank you very much for the response.That is very true to me sometime during the afternoon nap,but during the night I do not let them use the radio because it will also give as a bad reputation to our neighbors,who might be angry to the sounds of the radio.It is a waste of electricity and let us also give allowance to our appliances like the radio to also sleep.Have a nice day..................

You are very much welcome berting. I don't have to worry the sound made by the radio will disturb both the neighbors living on the sides of my house. For there their houses are not too close to mine Since my husband doesn't like to be disturbed by the radio music, I sleep with it on when he is away from home
Take care and have a nice day

You know what? I love to sleep while listening to the radio. I just love to listen to soft music when I go to bed, It relaxes me and I fall asleep very quickly. But I can understand your point since my partner cannot sleep if she listens something at night! she just can't, even when our neighbors are talking, she just hates any noise at night. She loves very quiet nights. He he.

Thank you very much for the response.It is your own style,and I have no right to correct it.I like to hear music during the day,but never during bedtime,because it makes me feel sick and angry.Please enjoy your day and have plenty of music.

Thank you very much for the response.We have the same preference,and I wish that many would also do it,not just to prevent global warming,save electricity,and could also make our appliances last more years to last.
