Listening to DAB radio (Australia, U.K.,
Europe and Russia models only)
DAB (Digital Audio Broadcasting) uses digital signals for clearer sound
and more stable reception compared to analog signals. The 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.
Y
• The unit supports Band III (174 to 240 MHz) only.
• Be sure to check the DAB coverage in your area in that not all areas are currently being
covered. For a list of nationwide DAB statuses and worldwide DAB frequencies, check
WorldDMB online at http://www.worlddab.org/.

For details on the antenna connection, see “Connecting the radio antennas” (p.48).

The following message appears on the front panel if you have not
performed an initial scan yet.
3

When the initial scan finishes, the unit automatically tunes into the
first DAB radio station as stored in station order.
X

appears again. Press ENTER to start an initial scan again.
• You can check reception strength of each DAB channel label (p.91).
