Default DAB advice

I've a feeling I'm just more critical about such things. I'd rather
have 'steady' DAB reception for R4 even at the low data rate than the
fluffing and farting from FM as you move around the room.


Well its //farting// or \\bubblin\\ so pick yer choice;!..


This is all making me think I should try getting a DAB portable to try in
the bathroom. I can get R4 there OK on FM in just one accessible place, but
not R3. Given that I get a decent DAB signal around the house I really
should try DAB there I suppose.

I get the impression many who criticise DAB on all accounts never
actually listen to the radio in the same way as the majority do...


Some have taste and standards, a lot don't.


Yes. Many people don't even listen to R3! :-)

Some wanted to stay up in the trees a few didn't;!..


Yes, you may find that being up a tree with a Yagi is best for FM reception
in many areas. :-)

Slainte,

Jim
