You will need a DAB radio in your car soon!

This is because we will all be going from FM to DAB.
The reason I say this is because Norway has already switched off its FM transmitters in one part of the country.
By the end of the year Norway will have turned off all the FM transmitters.
Now, how many of you have a DAB in the car?
Once Norway has went all digital, expect all other countries to follow in their footsteps.

For the authorities it is cheaper to maintain but for us it will mean extra costs.
There is no doubt that DAB radio is far better but for Norwegians they all have to get one or their radios will just pick up MW or LW broadcasts

So, for those buying a new radio for the home or car you will be better off to make sure it is a DAB radio.

Luckily I have Medium Wave and Long Wave on my car radio.
I mostly listen to talk radio on MW so I don't care

Me too, the music on FM radio is crap anyway.

When the price of DAB radios come down I might think about getting one.
I think Norway has a good idea though if its all about progress.

I like medium wave myself

Anyone remember the pirate radio stations?
Anyway I don't have a DAB radio and not planning to get one yet.

Yip, but long wave is terrible

I have heard these DAB radio broadcasts and they are very good.
You might need to add a bit bass or it might just have been the one I heard.

I paid enough for my car so I aint gonna but a DAB radio
