Until now, analogue radio signals such as FM or AM have been subject to
numerous kinds of interference on their way from the transmitter to your
radio. These problems were caused by mountains, high-rise buildings
and weather conditions. With Digital Audio Broadcast (DAB), you can now
receive CD-like quality radio programs without any annoying interference
and signal distortion. DAB broadcasts use digital signals rather than
traditional analogue transmissions, thus providing clear high quality
reception. You get far more robust reception and virtually hiss or crackle
free sound with DAB as long as you are within a good coverage area.
With DAB, the listener can scroll through a list of available stations - then
instantly tune to the station of his choice. There is no need to remember
channel frequencies. All broadcasts are selected by simply selecting the
service name.
The T 187 makes it possible for you to enjoy listening to DAB broadcasts.
The T 187 has a Digital Audio Broadcast (DAB) module socket on the rear
panel for adding a separately sold and NAD-specified outboard DAB
module - the NAD DAB Adaptor DB 1 or the DAB+ NAD DAB Adaptor
DB 2. All the control software for this format is included; just plug-in the
module and start enjoying the CD-like quality sound and expansive content
selection available with DAB.

LOCAL SCAN performs local scanning of available DAB services in your
area. Check with your dealer or visit www.WorldDAB.org to check the
applicable digital transmission frequencies in your area.

Upon selecting either “Full Scan” or “Local Scan”, automatic scanning
will be performed. This sequence cannot be interrupted. During the
sequence, the following message will be visible in the VFD.
The bars show the progress of the sequence. When scanning is
completed, the last number shown on the right side of the VFD
corresponds to the total number of DAB broadcast stations found. Then,
the first station is tuned in (See “ALPHANUMERIC” section below to
understand the order or arrangement of stations).
