DAB RADIO MODE
DAB radio mode receives DAB/DAB+ digital radio and displays information about the
station, stream and track playing.
To enter DAB radio mode, touch the DAB icon on the main menu screen until the display
shows DAB Radio.
When entering DAB radio mode, the last station listened
to is automatically selected.
Scanning for stations
The first time you select DAB radio mode, or if the station
list is empty, The MD 801 automatically performs a full
scan to see what stations are available. You may also need
to start a scan manually to update the list of stations for
one of the following reasons:
o Available stations change from time to time.
o If reception was not good for the original scan (for example the antenna was not up), this
may result in an empty or incomplete list of available stations.
o If you have poor reception of some stations (burbling), you may wish to list only stations
with good signal strength.
To start a scan manually, touch the DAB menu bar > Scan.
To scan only stations with a good signal strength, touch the DAB menu bar > Manual tune.
Once the scan is complete, the radio shows a list of available stations.
To remove stations that are listed but unavailable, touch the DAB menu bar > Prune invalid
stations.
Selecting stations
To listen to or change a station, touch the Select control to view a list of stations and press to
select. Once selected, the station plays and the screen shows information about the station,
track or show as broadcast.
Now playing information
While the stream is playing, the screen shows its name and DLS (Dynamic Label Segment)
information broadcast by the station giving real-time information such as programme name,
track title and contact details. Stereo broadcasts are indicated with an icon at the top of the
screen. To view further information, touch the information icon.
A screen will appear displaying information such as station ensemble, frequency, error rate,
signal strength, codec, bit rate and sampling rate.
Presets
To store a DAB preset, touch the icon until the display shows Favourite added. Select one
of the 10 presets to save the currently playing station.
To select a preset, touch the preset icon, and then select one of the listed preset stations.
Settings
Dynamic range compression (DRC)
If you are listening to music with a high dynamic range in a noisy environment (for example
classical music while cooking), you may wish to compress the audio dynamic range. This
makes quiet sounds louder and loud sounds quieter. To change DRC, touch the DAB menu
bar > DRC > then DRC Off, Low or High.
