General information
■ With DAB, several radio
programmes (services) can be
broadcast on a single frequency
(ensemble).
■ Besides high-quality digital audio
services, DAB is also able to
transmit programme-associated
data and a multitude of other data
services including travel and traffic
information.
■ As long as a given DAB receiver
can pick up the signal sent out by
a broadcasting station (even if the
signal is very weak), sound
reproduction is ensured.
■ There is no fading (weakening of
the sound) that is typical of AM or
FM reception. The DAB signal is
reproduced at a constant volume.
■ If the DAB signal is too weak to be
picked up by the receiver, reception
is interrupted completely. This
incident can be avoided by:
CD 500 / DVD 800: activating Auto
ensemble linking in the DAB
settings menu.
