Do you have a DAB car stereo? They're still on about the analogue switch off in the papers, I don't know more than one person who has a DAB stereo in their car.

i got one of the Pure ones in my office. it is crap. audio breaks up if the signal strength is below 60% and any movement in the office causes the signal strength to vary widely. i thought the modulation scheme used was meant to avoid these problems.

We seem to be getting overrun with Turpins :P aren't they like little turtles? :?

DAB, Di, is Digital Audio Broadcast or somesuch, digital radio with loads of channels and fancy stuff it can do if there's a really good signal, useless if the signal drops at all, a bit like digital tv really.

mmm. Definitely no. Listen to Forth 2 (1548MW) as a rule. Well mostly cos the CD player hasn't worked in a year.
