DAB
(Digital Audio Broadcasting) is an optimised
digital transmission standard designed for the mobile reception of radio
transmissions. Several stations are combined into ensembles and transmitted on
one single frequency. Digital radio stations can be transmitted nationally,
regionally or locally.
Digital stations
are selected and saved in the same way as analogue stations. The following
section therefore lists only those features specific to DAB.
Some stations only
transmit programmes at certain times. If you have selected a station that is
subsequently removed from the ensemble, it will no longer be received. You will
continue to receive the other programmes in the ensemble. Select either a
different programme or a different ensemble.
