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 actually have a half decent sound system in the bathroom - including
weatherproof speakers in the shower enclosure. ;-)

All decided on years ago because FM reception on a portable radio indoors
in this part of London was dreadful. As it was in a car, too.

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! :-)

Think the noise of the shower might upset listening to some things. ;-)
