What is DAB?
DAB stands for digital audio broadcasting. It is a new form of radio that is
broadcast digitally. Digital audio provides a superior quality of sound
compared to regular analogue broadcasting.
DAB structure
Band
There are two types of DAB bands, “BAND III” (Receivable on this unit)
and “L BAND” (Not receivable on this unit).
Frequencies
There are 41 frequencies on BAND III. Among those frequencies, 7 are
used in the UK (current as of January, 2007).
Ensemble, station and service
The number of stations that make up one frequency differ between DAB
and analogue radio. Analogue stations all broadcast on different
frequencies, even if it is the same company doing the broadcasting. With
DAB however, it is possible to broadcast a number of stations on the same
frequency. In DAB terminology, a group of stations on the same frequency
is called an ensemble.

Manual tuning

The unit comes on.
DAB Auto Scan...
Select “DAB”
>>>>>>>>
The illustrations
show RF-D7.
Adjust the volume
DAB stations can be tuned manually by
selecting the station name in alphanumeric
order.
If you are selecting DAB for
the first time, stations that
are currently receivable are
memorized.
As shown in the above diagram, an ensemble consists of a group of
stations which have primary services, they can also have secondary
services. This means, for example, that commentary on sports events from
different areas can all be broadcast at once.
DAB reception method on this unit
Depending on the region there is a difference between broadcast
frequency and stations broadcast along the same frequency. For
this reason, a memory of receivable stations should first be
created and then selected from those memorized stations.
DAB Auto Scan
This function searches for currently receivable stations and inputs them
into unit memory.
When DAB is selected for the first time, this function starts automatically.
Note
Even if the station is stored into memory, some stations may not broadcast
depending on the time of day etc. If this occurs, “NO SERVICE” is
displayed.
Station Memory Updating
• When there is a station name change
Station names are updated automatically when a station name that was
stored in memory before the update was selected. However preset
registered station names are not changed, therefore you need to perform
presetting again.
• When a new station begins broadcasting
When a new station name is found on the frequency currently being
broadcast, it is automatically added to the list of station names created
with Auto scan.
Note
• Deleting stations that are no longer broadcasting is not automatic. If you want
to delete a station, perform Auto scan again and the new memory is created.
•
When a new frequency begins broadcasting, stations on that new
frequency are not automatically added to memory. Perform Auto scan to
add them to memory. Also, you may need to change the Auto scan range if
the new frequency is outside the factory set Auto scan range ( page 7).
When a frequency is tuned
the ensemble
corresponding to the
frequency is displayed.
The station first in
alphanumeric order is
broadcast.
