DAB (Digital Audio Broadcasting) uses digital signals for
clearer sound and more stable reception compared to
analog signals. This unit can also receive DAB+ (an
upgraded version of DAB) that allows for more stations
using MPEG-4 audio codec (AAC+), which has a more
efficient transmission method.
Note
This unit supports Band III (174 to 240 MHz) only.
Preparing the DAB tuning
Before tuning in to DAB stations, an initial scan must be
performed. When you select the DAB for the first time,
the initial scan is performed automatically.
To listen to a DAB station, connect the antenna as
described in “Connecting the DAB/FM antenna (R-
N803D)” (p.13).
