Scan DAB stations
Digital Audio Broadcasting (DAB) is a digital broad casing
standard for terrestrial reception of digital radio. A list of radio
stations which can be received in Germany is available on the
Internet at www.digitalradio.de.
NOTE:
In Germany approx. 70% of the country' s area is covered by
digital radio broadcasts (as of Nov. 2011). In the individual
areas however, coverage and provision vary greatly. If the
DAB stations in your region cannot be received or only with
interferences depending on location, in this case you can
switch to the FM band to receive this station. This is only
possible however if these stations are broadcast via VHF.
Find out more on the internet site of the radio station.
1. Press the SOURCE button (11) repeatedly until "DAB
MODE" appears on the display.
2. Press the SCAN button (5). The device then searches for
the radio stations which can be received.

the / buttons (3). Confirm your selection with the

"motorboats", try to improve the reception by changing

NOTE:
• For optimum DAB reception, we recommend to align
the telescopic antenna vertically.
