[QUOTE="timo_w2s, post: 916344, member: 196043"] I have no problem with DAB reception here just outside London and it is better than FM for interference free listening, especially in the car, but... and it's a big but... the way it's implemented in the UK with the inefficient original DAB codec and low mono bitrates makes it a joke in its current state as far as I'm concerned. I also find there is very little content of interest for me these days on UK radio, but the same goes for FM, so I guess I'm one of the 3% of people are "dissatisfied" with the choice. I used to be a bit of an anorak but radio is just boring these days. I have a DAB radio on to my hifi but I only use it to see if I can pick up a new multiplex and then I switch it off again. I don't think it's been switched on yet this year. [/QUOTE]
