  INTRODUCTION

Introduction

DAB  (Digital  Audio  Broadcasting)  technology  allows  many 
more radio stations compared to FM. DAB transmissions do 
away with problems of hiss and fade that plague AM and 
FM broadcasts and are less likely to be affected by adverse 
weather  conditions  or  other  sources  of  interference.  In 
addition to speech and music DAB transmissions carry high 
levels of data - far greater than the limited RDS information 
available on FM stations.
Unlike  FM,  DAB  is  broadcast  on  many  frequencies.  Many 
countries in Europe, including the UK use Band III (174-240 
MHz);  others,  France  for  example,  use  the  L-Band  (1452-
1492 MHz). Germany uses both bands.
Your  radio  can  tune  Band  III.  Countries  in  Europe  that  use 
Band III include: Belgium, Denmark, Holland, Italy, Norway, 
Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland. Your radio will tune 
stations in all these countries.
Your  radio  cannot  receive  French  or  German  stations 
broadcasting in the L-Band though FM services are available 
all over Europe.
Being digital, DAB transmissions can have a wider frequency 
range  and  greater  dynamics  than  that  available  with  FM 
technology.
FM reception is available on the DCR1401 for use in those 
locations where there is no usable DAB service.
