MC+50 Introduction Introduction DAB (Digital Audio Broadcasting) technology allows many more radio stations compared to FM. DAB transmissions do away with problems of hiss and fade that plague AM and FM broadcasts and are less likely to be affected by adverse weather conditions or other sources of interference. In addition to speech and music DAB transmissions carry high levels of data - far greater than the limited RDS information available on FM stations. Unlike FM, DAB is broadcast on many frequencies.
