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 stations using MPEG-4 HE-AAC v2
audio codec, which has a more efficient transmission
method and provides higher sound than DAB.
Preparing the DAB tuning
Before tuning into DAB stations, an initial scan must be
performed. The initial scan starts automatically when you
select DAB as the input source for the first time.
