DAB TUNER OPERATIONS

Broadcasting) tuner KT-DB1500 with your unit.

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.
