DAB (Digital Audio Broadcasting) uses digital signals for clearer sound and more stable reception compared to analog
signals. This unit can also receive DAB+ (an upgraded version of DAB) that allows for more stations using MPEG-4
audio codec (AAC+), which has a more efficient transmission method.
Note
This unit supports Band III (174 to 240 MHz) only.
Preparing the DAB tuning
Before tuning in to DAB stations, an initial scan must be
performed. When you select the DAB for the first time,
the initial scan is performed automatically.
To listen to a DAB station, connect the antenna as
described in “Connecting the DAB/FM antenna (R-
N303D)” (p. 12).

source.

The initial scan starts. During the scan, the progress is
displayed on the front panel display.
When the scan is complete, the top of the list of the
scanned stations appears on the front panel display.
Note
• If no DAB radio stations are found by an initial scan,
“Not Found” will appear on the front panel display,
followed by “Off Air”. Press BAND twice to re-select the
DAB band and scan again.
• You can check reception strength of each DAB channel
label (p. 29).

stations are stored, select “Initiate Scan” (p. 37) in the
“OPTION” menu. If you perform an initial scan again, the
DAB radio stations currently registered to the preset
numbers will be cleared.
