Hi Jackie, Yes, what you say of course is true, and if it were just that
I'd
not be too bothered, and I guess I'm not really anyway, as it's mostly the
DAB stations I listen to, but the problem with FM is that when I plug in
headphones [which is the way I listen most] some stations just break up,
even radio 1 that has a strong signal switches between mono and stereo,
and
breaks up. I'm not a radio 1 listener, so again not too bothered, but my
own
BBC local station is very poor when using headphones! -

| Hi Andy
|
| The mono signal that comes through the speaker on the Pure Move radio
| removes hiss, so you get a better signal. But when you plug your
headphones
| in, the signal becomes stereo, therefore bringing in hiss. A radio has
to
| have a very strong signal not to hiss in stereo.
|
| Overall, my opinion of DAB radios that accommodate FM is that they
aren't
as
| good as proper FM sets. The Pure Move is the best of those I've seen
and
| used, but you do get digital interference from the computer processor.
|
| I hope this makes sense and helps answer your question.
