I read an article in one of the audio mags last week that argued the
case that actually, DVB-T (i.e. "Freeview") provides the cleanest,
highest-resolution radio around right now - even compared with FM.


Don't believe all the bollox thats writ by supposed Audio Jurnos


If it's the article I think it is (HiFi News, March issue), the author's
name might have been something like Jim Lesurf ...


Who he? 8-]

If it was, the dynamic range comparisons graphs for real programme
material via the different routes were interesting and confirmed some of
my own rather cruder comparisons.


FWIW I did analyses of various examples of concerts and the plots in the
article are fairly representitive. The analysis/article was directed
specifically at 'proms' on BBC4TV and R3 as this was a very convenient set
of examples for comparison analysis.

Note that the article doesn't really deal with DAB. Just with DTTV and FM.

For obvious reasons, the results may well have been quite different for
other stations or items, or if DAB had been included.

Slainte,

Jim
