Digital Radio in Melbourne on Old UK Digital Radio
 
Now that DAB+ is being rolledo ut I'm wondering if I can play withthe settings on my UK digital radios to let them pick it up here. My radio alarm is seeing stations when it scans but only the names and there's no sound. Does anyone know what the specific settings I need are (not the station frequencies, I can get them online?

Thanks

Unfortunately, UK uses DAB whereas Aus uses DAB+.

Check out the manufacturers site to see whether you can do a firmware update somehow. You never know.

Good question. My Oasis Pure, a quality bit of kit, cannot be upgraded so is useless over here. Sitting in a box doing nothing so think it needs to be returned to the UK...
