Listening to DAB

What is DAB?

DAB (Digital Audio Broadcasting) is a technology for transmitting radio
stations using digital signals, rather than the analogue signals used for
FM and AM. Being digital provides DAB with a number of advantages
over FM and AM. For one, DAB signals are not subject to the hiss and
crackle (caused by hills, tall buildings and weather conditions) that
can affect analogue signals. Another advantage is that the nature of
the digital technology allows many stations to be transmitted on the
one frequency, allowing broadcasters to provide a far wider range of
programming.
All DAB stations broadcast the station's name, and most also
broadcast 'programme-associated data' (Radio Text), similar to the
RDS system for FM. This can include information on the music being
broadcast or news headlines, and will regularly scroll across the
tuner's front panel (see Radio Text, page 17).
Note:
Due to the nature of digital broadcasting, when using the AKURATE
Tuner you may notice a short delay between selecting a DAB station
and audio being heard.
