What is DAB

+

Digital Radio?

DAB

+

means Digital Audio Broadcasting. The difference between a DAB

+

radio and a conventional AM/FM radio is that broadcasts are transmitted
digitally, resulting in a high quality audio sound*, without any hiss, fading
or crackles.
Your DAB

+

radio will automatically scan and find all the available stations
for you. Each station name, together with other helpful broadcast
information is shown on the display; select the one that you would like to
listen to, and it’s very easy and quick to use.
* Please note that the sound quality is dependent on a strong signal

strength. Signal strength can vary from area to area.
