DIGITAL RADIO (DAB)

About DAB (Digital Audio Broadcasting)

DAB is one of the digital radio broadcasting systems available today. It can deliver digital quality sound without any annoying

interference or signal distortion. Furthermore, it can carry text, pictures and data.

In contrast to FM broadcast, where each program is transmitted on its own frequency, DAB combines several programs (called “services”) to form one “ensemble.”

The “primary component” (main radio station) is sometimes accompanied by a “secondary component” which can contain extra programs or other information.

Preparation:

1Connect a DAB antenna to the DAB antenna jack. ( 25)

2 Press BSRC to select DAB.

3Press and hold to start the Service List update.

“LIST UPDATE” appears and update starts. “UPDATED” appears when update completes.

Updates take up to 3 minutes. No interruption (such as traffic information) is possible during updates.

•To cancel the Service List update: Press and hold again.

Start listening

1 Press BSRC to select DAB.

2 Press J BAND repeatedly (or press #FM+ on RC-406) to select DB1/ DB2/ DB3.

3Press and hold S / T (or press and hold S / T (+) on RC-406) to search for an ensemble.

4Press S / T (or press S / T (+) on RC-406) to select an ensemble, service or component to listen.

•To change the tuning method for S / T: Press K SEEK repeatedly.
