What is DAB system?

DAB is one of the digital radio broadcasting systems available today. It can deliver CD quality sound without any annoying interference and signal distortion. Furthermore, it can carry text, pictures and data.

In contrast to FM broadcast, where each programme is transmitted on its own frequency, DAB combines several programmes (called “services”) to form one “ensemble.”

With the DAB tuner connected with this unit, you can enjoy these DAB services.

Tuning into an ensemble and one of the services

A typical ensemble has 6 or more programmes (services) broadcast at the same time. After tuning into an ensemble, you can select a service you want to listen to.
