Default DAB advice

"Dave Plowman (News)" wrote

If you're worried about it being switched off I'm willing to bet
this simply won't happen in the foreseeable future. Too many cars without
it - and no signs of it being fitted to new ones.


Agreed. The new government has abandoned the 2015 date for analogue
switch-off that the previous one had set, and is now simply talking about
switching off analogue when the majority of listeners have switched to
digital. That won't be in 2015, probably not by 2025.

It seems to me that DAB has simply failed to make the grade. I wouldn't mind
betting that FM will outlast DAB!

David.
