Important Notes
Hearing is very important to you and to us so please take care when operating this
equipment. It is strongly recommended that you follow the listed guidelines in order to
prevent possible damage or loss of hearing:
ESTABLISH A SAFE SOUND LEVEL
l
Over time your hearing will adapt to continuous loud sounds and will give the
impression that the volume has in fact been reduced. What seems normal to you may
in fact be harmful. To guard against this set the
volume at a low level.
Slowly increase the level until you can hear comfortably and clearly and without
l
distortion.
Damage to your hearing is accumulative and is irreversible.
l
Any ringing or discomfort in the ears indicates that the volume is too loud.
l
Once you have established a comfortable listening level, DO NOT INCREASE THE
SOUND LEVEL FURTHER.
The following list of typical sound levels may assist you in recognising just how loud you
have set the volume level.
DECIBEL
Level dB Example
30dB Quiet library, soft whisper.
40 Living room, fridge freezer bedroom away from traffic.
50 Normal conversation, quiet office, light traffic.
60 Electric sewing machine,
70 Vacuum cleaner, hair dryer, noisy restaurant
BEFORE YOUR HEARING ADAPTS
THE FOLLOWING NOISE CAN BE HARMFUL UNDER CONSTANT EXPOSURE
80dB Average city traffic, alarm clock buzzer at 2 feet, food mixer.
90dB Motorcycle, heavy goods vehicle, petrol lawn mower.
100 Pneumatic drill, chain saw, garbage truck, discotec / night-club.
120 Rock band concert, thunderclap.
PERMANENT LOSS OF HEARING
140 Gunshot 2 feet away.
180 Rocket Launching pad.

DAB Operation
DAB or Digital Audio Broadcasting represents a New age in broadcasting technology and
as with all new technologies it is significantly different to traditional Analogue FM/AM
broadcast methods. The new system no longer relies on the user tuning to a given
frequency but instead allows the DAB receiver to provide an active service list of all
available radio programmes/stations at the touch of one button.
IMPORTANT :
1. Switch the main power switch on the rear of the unit to the ON position
2. Press the STANDBY button on the front of the unit or on the remote control to switch
the unit ON the standby indicator will extinguish.
3. Press the DAB button, the LCD display will illuminate and will show Goodmans DAB ,
solid blocks will progress across the display from left to right. The 0 in the top right
hand corner of the display will change as stations are found and after around 10
seconds now tuning will show in the display and the first station on the service list will
be tuned to.
NOTE: At this stage and in the unlikely event that the display shows Poor reception?
a. No DAB service in the local area Check with the DRDB at or call
the reception Helpline on 08700 100 123
b. The unit needs relocating to a better location in order to get adequate reception to
help with this process a tuning aid can be accessed by pressing the select button
this will bring up a manual tuning aid which will show the available signal strength
for a given multiplex the incoming signal should exceed the outline box shown in
the display to ensure good uninterrupted reception. Move the unit around in the
location until an adequate signal is received.
c. In the event that the available signal is still not sufficient it may be necessary to
connect an external aerial to the socket on the rear of the Gps 280 in this case
please ensure the aerial switch is set to the EXT position.
4. Assuming there is now a service list available the other stations on the list can be
located by using the UP and DOWN buttons to scroll the list and then to listen to station
shown on the bottom line of the display press the select button.
Before selecting the DAB function for the first time please ensure the DAB
Rod aerial is fully extended and upright.
this indicates the unit has been unable to locate any available stations this may
be due to
www.DRDB.org
Important Reminder for DAB Reception
Please be reminded that this unit is specifically designed for
reception of UK only DAB services restricted to Band 3 only it will
therefore receive DAB services in Europe which are broadcast
on L band.

a signal strength meter and is useful in areas of poor reception. The multiplexes can be
scrolled through using the UP and DOWN buttons and are listed as follows
11B 11C 11D 12A 12B 12C 12D 11B etc.
To check the signal strength for a multiplex press the SELECT button when the required
multiplex number is in the display and the unit will tune to that multiplex and display the
signal strength as a bar moving from left to right for correct reception the bar should pass
the outline box shown in the display.
To exit this menu at any stage press the SETUP button.
NOTE: Some Multiplexes will appear to have no signal when checked using the above
method this is normal and indicates that the selected multiplex is not broadcasting in the
area where the unit is being used.
A single multiplex can carry a large number of individual stations therefore it is not
necessary for all multiplexes to be used in all areas of the country.

DAB Operation (Continued)
Dynamic range (DRC)
DRC (Dynamic Range Control) enables the alteration of the dynamic range of the received
audio (dependent on broadcast material). The DRC level of a broadcast is set by the
broadcaster and transmitted with the service.
Changing the DRC value applies relative variance to the transmitted level.
When this option is selected the current DRC value is displayed on the top line of the
display and the available adjustment is displayed as a scroll selection on the bottom line of
the display, use the UP DOWN buttons to view the available adjustment options.
DRC 0: DRC adjustment is switched off.
DRC1/2: DRC adjustment is set to 1/2 of that sent with the transmitted service.
DRC 1: Applies the DRC scaling as sent with the transmitted service. This is
the default setting.
SW version
This option shows the version number of the software installed in the unit. This option can
only be viewed and is for information only, no adjustment is available.
Channel +freq.
This option shows the multiplex number and frequency of the current tuned service. This
option can only be viewed and is for information only, no adjustment is available.
Sig error rate
This option shows the digital bit error rate of the current tuned service. This option can only
be viewed and is for information only, no adjustment is available. The lower the figure the
better the quality of the received broadcast.
