I didn't know about the bitrate on DAB. Very interesting.

However, I've just put a DAB unit in my car, and it works really well. I counted 50 radio stations the first time I used it, and when the reception in there, it's undoubtably better than normal FM.
The reception down here isn't as good as it could be, but I knew that before I fitted it.

Not sure I'd get one for home use though... Not after reading that link! I'll stick to Sky.:innocent:

I have a DAB radio in my office and Sky Digital downstairs and in my bedroom - I listen to a particular station on DAB as its great, but has many of the effects spoke about there -- basically its completely inferior to Sky which plays it crystal clear.
