02 What is Digital Radio?

DAB (Digital Audio Broadcasting) is the next generation of radio.

DAB was developed in Europe by a consortium of broadcasters and manufacturers.

DAB uses digital compression techniques to transform the source material, i.e. music

and speech, into digital code before it is transmitted. The code consists of electronic

‘ones and zeros’ called binary digits or bits. The binary code is then multiplexed or

grouped together to create a superior signal, when compared with the older analogue

system, with the following key benefits:

Near CD quality sound.

Because DAB is binary coded, the receiving equipment is only expecting to receive a

series of ones and zeros, so any other interference is ignored, resulting in very high

quality audio.

Interference free reception.

Analogue systems suffer from an effect called ‘multipath distortion’. This is caused

because waves do not behave in an orderly fashion, but bounce and reflect off

buildings etc. DAB sees this as an advantage and uses the direct and reflected signals

to actually reinforce the end result.

No need to re-tune.

A single DAB frequency can be used to cover the whole of the UK, so solving many of

the problems experienced with the earlier analogue system. DAB can automatically

tune-in all of the available stations in your area.

Getting Started

Unpack Your DAB Digital Radio

Carefully remove your DAB Digital Radio

from the box. You may wish to store the

packaging for future use.

In the Box

Inside the box you will find:

• DAB Digital Radio

• Mains power supply lead

• User Guide

If any of these items are missing please

contact the Customer Helpline.

Positioning Your DAB Digital

Radio

Place your DAB Digital Radio on a flat,

stable surface that is not subject to

vibrations.

• Avoid the following locations:

• Where it is exposed to direct sunlight.

• Where it is close to heat radiating

sources.

• Where the humidity is high and

ventilation is poor.

• Where it is dusty.

Adjusting the Aerial

The aerial should be fully extended to

ensure good reception in both DAB and

FM radio modes. The DAB digital radio

has an internal aerial for MW. It may be

necessary to alter the position of the

DAB digital radio and/or the aerial to

achieve the best signal.
