DAB+ Radios

What Are DAB/DAB+ Radios and Why Are They Replacing Analogue Radio Broadcasting?

Although the DAB standard is not new, it has only recently started to become more widespread—particularly after the DAB+ upgrade. DAB radio is being discontinued, so be sure to look for DAB+ radios. Compared to analogue broadcasting, digital broadcasting is far more efficient. It offers enhanced sound quality without distortion and is capable of transmitting a greater volume of data.

How Do I Tune Into DAB+ Radio?

Tuning into DAB+ radio stations is incredibly easy—they work exactly the same as conventional radios. Please be aware that you can buy a DAB adapter to upgrade old devices—the only solution is to buy new equipment.

• A conventional DAB+ radio usually has a telescopic antenna, which is sufficient for everyday listening.
• RDS radios receive additional data (text, pictures) with the radio, which they display on-screen.
• DAB+ antennas significantly improve signal range and quality. They also support the DVB-T2 television standard.

The Most Popular Stations Broadcast in DAB+/DAB

As most radio stations made the switch to DAB+/DAB radio several years ago, there's no need to worry that you won't be able to tune in to your favourite shows on the new standard. Almost every DAB+ radio also allows you to receive FM broadcasts.
