LISTENING TO DAB RADIO

Until now, analogue radio signals such as FM or AM have been subject to
numerous kinds of interference on their way from the transmitter to your
radio. These problems were caused by mountains, high-rise buildings
and weather conditions. With Digital Audio Broadcast (DAB), you can now
receive CD-like quality radio programs without any annoying interference
and signal distortion. DAB broadcasts use digital signals rather than
traditional analogue transmissions, thus providing clear high quality
reception. You get far more robust reception and virtually hiss or crackle
free sound with DAB as long as you are within a good coverage area.
With DAB, the listener can scroll through a list of available stations - then
instantly tune to the station of his choice. There is no need either to
remember channel frequencies. All broadcasts are selected by simply
selecting the service name.
The T 775 makes it possible for you to enjoy listening to DAB broadcasts.
The T 775 has a Digital Audio Broadcast (DAB) module socket on the rear
panel for adding a separately sold and NAD-speci ed outboard DAB
module – the NAD DAB Adaptor DB 1. All the control software for this
format is included; just plug-in the module and start enjoying the CD-like
quality sound and expansive content selection available with DAB.
