What is DAB digital radio?

DAB radio is a totally new way of transmission. It uses digital signals rather than the analogue signals that FM and MW wavebands transmit on. This enables near digital quality audio and enables more stations to be broadcast using a narrow waveband. DAB can also transmit additional data with the audio channels.

The stations broadcast on a single frequency network, called an ensemble or multiplex. These can contain many different stations and are on 1 frequency. Each multiplex is transmitted on a set frequency range and are broadcast in the frequency band III (174 – 240MHz), which is sub-divided into 41 blocks labeled 5A to 13F. Each can contain 1 multiplex.

Secondary services and additional data are available in each multiplex.

The number of multiplexes that you will receive will vary upon the geographical location.

So instead of knowing the frequency, you just need to select the station name, making it much easier to tune to your favorite station.

Electrical requirements

Check the voltage on the rating plate of your radio corresponds with your house electricity supply, which must be A.C. (alternating current).

If the socket outlets in your home are not suitable for the plug supplied with this appliance the plug should be removed and the appropriate one fitted.

WARNING: The plug if severed from the mains lead must be destroyed, as a plug with a bared flexible cord is hazardous if engaged into a live socket outlet.

Should the fuse in the 13-amp plug require changing a 3-amp BS 1362 fuse must be fitted.

Power

The radio will work on mains or can be battery operated for portable use. When the mains connector is fitted the batteries will be overridden.

Mains supply

Insert the figure-of-eight connector on the mains lead into the mains input socket, insert the plug into a mains socket and switch the socket on.

Installing batteries (not supplied)

1 Remove the battery compartment cover (located at the rear). 2 Insert 4 x D batteries as shown by the diagram inside the

compartment being careful to observe polarity. The ribbon will help

in removing the batteries in the future. 3 Replace the battery compartment cover. IMPORTANT: If the unit is not to be used for a prolonged period,

remove the batteries to avoid battery leakage. In the interests of environmental safety, dispose of batteries safely.
