In a way you are right, Steve in that DAB radio reception cannot be guaranteed
but it does have many stations which are not available via FM Radio. I'd say
that these days I listen as much to DAB as FM radio.

Is DAB radio that important really? You can't get signal everywhere, the
quality is not as good as FM Radio or Internet radio, and I could go on.
All the best

I am really surprised that neither rnib nor British wireless for the Blind
fund have done anything about commissioning a portable dab radio. In view of
how important radio is for someone who does not see and the governments hope
that one day all stations will be available via DAB you would think that by now
away round of making an accessible portable dab radio would have been found.

Hi
I know this has been dealt with previously but I now need to purchase
one of these radios.
Back in 2014 Jackie Brown recommended 1. Roberts Ecologic 1 DAB/FM
portable radio and
2. Roberts Record R.
Are there more up to date radios on the market? I am looking for
approximately 10 presets on each inputs for a price of around £60.
Look forward to hearing soon.
Regards.
