Listening to the DAB
DAB (Digital Audio Broadcasting) is a digital
transmission system where audio signals are converted
to digital signals for broadcasting.
DAB is broadcast as a group of data called multiplex
(ensemble) which may contain one or more stations
(services). Each station contains a primary service and
there may be one or more secondary services.
This allows several programmes or services to be
transmitted on a single frequency.
Selecting DAB for the very first time
The very first time you select DAB, the Auto Scan
function automatically scans the DAB Band III for the
multiplexes (i.e., stations) available in your area. Once
the scanning process is complete, the first station that
was detected is selected.
If a new DAB station is introduced, or you move to a
new area, you can run the Auto Scan function again.
Press the
TUNER (BAND)
button repeatedly to select the
“DAB”.
