DAB digital radio
Can I ask if DAB radio is popular in Aus?
It occurred to me that we have 4 DAB radios in this house and it might be a waste of time bringing them with me, as I learned that other countries are not as enthusiastic about it!!

Think of the UK circa 1980 and you wont go far wrong.
I wouldn't have it any other way though, at least it's still safe to walk the streets at night :-)

Re: DAB digital radio
isn't it worth bringing them for when it does come out, as prices of DAB radio's will be at a premium for a while?

Re: DAB digital radio
Hi,
I emailed PURE and asked them about DAB+ and eventually they replied....
the DAB radios DON'T work on the DAB+ format that Australia has favoured... so guys... ebay it is for our DAB's!!!
Thanks everyone who answered!
