DAB Indoor Antenna
Connect the T-type DAB antenna to the DAB socket,
extend the lead vertically and attach it to a window
frame or wall with thumb tacks, or the like, where
reception is best.
<
You can check the antenna adjustment or positioning
for the best reception by viewing the signal quality on
the display.
The signal quality is displayed by pressing the INFO
button repeatedly (see page 38).
DAB Outdoor Antenna
In an area where DAB signals are weak, it will be
necessary to use an outdoor DAB antenna. There are
two main types available.
Dipole:
For use in marginal signal areas. This type of antenna is
omnidirectional and should increase the strength of all
DAB stations being received.
Multi-element antenna:
Also for use in marginal or poor signal areas. This
type of antenna is directional and has high gain. This
antenna needs to be pointed at the transmitter you
want to listen to.
<
It is possible to use a TV or FM antenna with your DAB
tuner as this is normally mounted externally. This may
give a stronger signal than a simple internal antenna,
however it would not be tuned specifically for DAB
reception.
You would need to change the plug on your TV/FM
antenna to an F type, and it may also be necessary to
use a signal booster to enhance the signal.
