A Year Of DAB

Well, it was the 29th October 2004 when a Pure Evoke – 1XT changed the way I listened to radio, apart from leaving it on overnight.  It was joined in 2005 by not one but two Roberts RD 15s, for travel & work.  OK, so I know that FM sounds better, they no longer use "CD Quality", the bit rate has gone through the floor but I like it.  So far everywhere, where I have tried it, Poole, Southsea, London, York, Newcastle and Bedwas works fine.  And on a good day it even works downstairs as well.
 
If you accept it as radio (mostly mono) and not HiFi, then you will be fine.  The stations, well there’s The World Service (World Football – World Service) and of course Planet Rock.  And the big thing is, I no longer fear the night time on Five Live.
 
Works for me 🙂
