The Active Station option will sort the station list by quality of the signal. The stations with the best reception will be shown on top of the list. Stations with weak or no reception will be moved to the bottom of the list.

The Tidy Station option will do the same as the Active Station option, but will remove the sta- tions in your area with no reception.

Signal Error Rate

In this section you can see the level of correction the TU 970 is applying to the DAB signal to maintain the audio quality. The level will be indi- cated by a numeric value between 0 (no correc- tion) and 99 (maximum correction). For an acceptable quality, the value of 50 should not be exceeded.
