DAB Operations
What is DAB system?
DAB (Digital Audio Broadcasting) is one of the digital radio
broadcasting systems available today. It can deliver digital
quality sound without any annoying interference or signal
distortion. Furthermore, it can carry text, pictures and data.
In contrast to FM broadcast, where each program is
transmitted on its own frequency, DAB combines several
programs (called “services”) to form one “ensemble.”
“Primary services” (main radio stations) are sometimes
accompanied by “secondary services” to broadcast
additional programs.
Listening to a Service
1
Select DAB.
• When you change the source to DAB for the first time
after plugging in the AC power cord, the System
automatically scans the DAB bands for available
ensembles (see the next page).
2
Select an ensemble.
You can choose from the ensembles found by the
ensemble scanning.
To choose from all the ensembles, see “To tune in to all
the ensembles” on the next page.
3
Select a service (either primary or secondary) you
want to listen to.
Ex.
• When the signal is strong enough, the ST indicator
lights on the display.
