EvansJD2112 Posted November 22, 2017 Posted November 22, 2017 Looking to add Dab to my 370z Anyone used something like thishttp://www.dabonwheels.co.uk/CK-O_DAB2011-V2-TS.html or other suggestions that work well? Quote
EvansJD2112 Posted November 24, 2017 Author Posted November 24, 2017 Decided to give this a go. http://www.dension.com/automotive/products/dab-radio-solutions/dabu Will report back what its like Quote
Toon Chris Posted November 24, 2017 Posted November 24, 2017 Ouch, not cheap. When you can get a decent DAB radio for under £40 now, these USB thingies are pricey! Please do let us know how it works, I'm in the market for Xmas so am very interested in a review Quote
EvansJD2112 Posted November 25, 2017 Author Posted November 25, 2017 Will do. Good service tbh, ordered Wednesday and it arrived yesterday morning. Was shipped from Hungary via UPS. I was a little unsure to order from there rather than from https://www.dension.co.uk/dab-digital-radio/dension-dbu2gen-dab-u-usb-receiver.html as the checkout process was not encrypted. Made sure I used my secondary email account and a random password and the actual checkout was via PayPal. Hopefully get a chance to plug it in today/tomorrow. I've updated the firmware and installed the correct code for the 370z so will be interesting. Will post an update. Quote
EvansJD2112 Posted November 29, 2017 Author Posted November 29, 2017 Very quick update... The receiver itself worked fine. Station reception was good. But, the time taken to change station was something I couldnt live with. Best I could get was 35 seconds. So, returning the item Quote
Toon Chris Posted November 30, 2017 Posted November 30, 2017 Hmm. I've heard this is common. The way they work and the DAB system involves some caching of the data. I don't know if some are better than others. Quote
