DAB is coming ... how to proceed?

[ATTAK Z]

How can we ensure that we still get our favorite radio programmes when analogue broadcasting is switched off ?

This might help, the highway option looks ok

Not going to happen for many years yet, I don't care what the current timescale says. DAB just hasn't caught on enough for any government to consider switching analogue off yet.

the proviso date is 2015, i can;t see it happening till 2020

 

weren't they about 3 years behind sechedule with turning off the analogue TV signal?

I have DAB in my Zed all tucked away and integratedinto my HU not 100% reception everywhere but good enough for me...

DAB is decent but its old tech now. They need to upgrade it all but doing that will render all normal DAB stuff void. DAB in the car is great but the cost of it and considering the quality it isnt great. But 1xtra and radio4xtra are great.

+1 on 1xtra

Ever since I left London I missed Choice FM.

With DAB in the car now I listen to a lot more radio......mainly 1Xtra or Choice.

 

I do get the odd drop outs at home and in the car with DAB but I find it much better than FM for sound. Cost of home and car units seem to be getting cheaper and cheaper too.
