FIXRADIO Tunes Request Thread (And DAB Radio Recommendations Thread)

Wow I thought it was the standard all over the globe now! Is it just the BBC pushing it here that's got it through then. Or at least mostly though. As Tel said, a lot of stations wont stay tuned in as you drive around in a vehicle.

I thought it was like the phone 4G then onto 5G situation, where it's a bit of a given it'll move onto the next one. Clearly not then!

I love DAB but I also get signal problems a lot of the time...

When I was in America my rental car had satellite radio which I thought was amazing always wondered why it wasn't a thing in the UK. I don't think I ever lost signal and I covered thousands of miles.

Sky have everything sown up. You'd have to pay them an extortionate fee to be carried on one of their Astra satellites

Have the Dewalt Tough System Dab radio, and just got a new van which also has Dab radio in it.
