Some new digital radios allow you to pause live radio - so you could
just press pause for 5 seconds. Not quite what you're after but...

Sure, a digital audio delay.

The first delay like that for video involved 2 quad decks, several
coathangers, and a lot of tape hanging in the air. It was called the
instant replay.

It used to be done with a cart machine but cart machines are all but gone.
For something that is a bit more modern, call a radio station that takes
phone calls and puts them on the air.

You can blame the FCC for most of this delay nonsense, not the technology.

OTOH: Delay Play Radio http://delayplayradio.com/ $140

But there is likely freeware software that will put your PC
to work earning its living.

With a few cables, a computer, and the free radiodelay software from http://www.daansystems.com/radiodelay/ I got this to work pretty easily.

Simply connect your radio's headphone out jack to your computers microphone in jack, run the radiodelay software and select your delay (from 0.1sec to 19.9sec), and the delayed sound will be played over your computer speakers. Rather than use the computer speakers you could also connect the computer's headphone output to your home stereo. (in my case I have an Turtle Beach Audio Advantage Micro plugged into a USB port which connects over a TOSLINK optical cable to my home stereo, over which I then listen to the delayed audio).

Now I'm all set to listen to the local sports announcers announce the games I'm watching on TV. If I could only use the delayed audio with my DVR now that would be cool  .

Thanks so much! I;m able to tune KOA 850 via iHeart Radio and thus get the local radio audio with the HDTV and no extra hardware. Delay is a whopping 10 seconds. Zero cost and works perfectly, THANKS!
