DAB advice
In article , Gordon MacPherson gordon.macph

Hi,
Looking for a DAB radio to leave in the bathroom! Main problem is
reception - it seems to be a weak signal - so sensitivity is an issue. Also
must run on batteries so battery life is a consideration. Does not need any
fancy features - radios 3 and 4!
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Gordon
If thats all you need and the claimed perfick DAB reception isn't up to
it then why bother with DAB?. If you follow most any DAB forum apart
from poor audio quality, OK not that much of a problem for a bathroom
radio, the biggest gripe is power consumption and hence battery life!..
Interesting that your posting from an ox.ac.uk mail addy and if you are
in Oxford there is a main TX at Beckley radiating 10 kW on DAB just to
the North of the town;!...
Get an FM one, will be around for quite sometime as yet!....
