Cheers, have tried both options, but still no audio I'm afraid.
I have tried other stations and no issues there.
Must be an area thing?

Sometimes a large Auto Retune can help - i.e. - press 'Autotune' and hold for five seconds, rather than just pressing it quickly once.
Sometimes.

Doesn't bother me. FM reception in the car has become more patchy over the past year or so - possibly due to rubbish radio or signal being reduced? Curious that, however bad the reception is, Radio 3 and Classic FM always seem fine!

the problem for DAB is it solves a problem no body had, apparently isnt very good for car travel and bloody expensive radios.
i note that the cost of the radios is now >30 for some, so thats going to allow higher uptake. we have one and its nice to pick up a wider range of radio, but thats a bit of a gimmick in the internet connected house. you can probably buy a dongle and stream internet radio for less than DAB if you already have TV in the room? and what about battery operated radio for the shed/allotment etc? all for something no one ever asked for.

And considerably less than both can change your Government.
But that's so called democracy for you.

Yes definitely, in fact I've just bought an FM to compliment the numerous DAB I own
DAB sounds rubbish. It's now an old technology.
I often listen to the commentary live at the football. Can't do that with DAB because of the delay it's useless.
The future isn't DAB it's radio over the internet at much better quality than DAB can offer...
... As long as they shorten the delay.

Rubbish! I listen to match day coverage on my DAB radio.

Just bought another pocket FM off eBay.
Sad I know but I like to listen to commentary in one ear whilst watching the game live.
Odd it is the "modern" FM receivers in mobiles are rubbish compared to what was available a decade ago.
And as discussed DAB and internet are unusable due to the delay.
This isn't a cheap hobby The really good old analogue pocket radios aren't cheap. Particularity the Sony ones. Tracked down by radio geeks for their AM capabilities.
At the Newcastle game I was flicking between radio Sussex and 5 live with an "old" Sony pocket radio that is tiny. Not much bigger than a matchbox.
They don't make them anymore, but I managed to track one down.
My mobile can't do that.

Since moving back this way it is brilliant to listen to Radio Sussex commentary on away games. Why should I have to buy a digital radio just for that? All other radio listening I do either on line or through telly satellite.

New car has DAB. I have a stand alone DAB that hooks up to the radio of my van. Mainly because I'm a 5Live listener though. DAB disappears between Falmer and Lewes. They turned of analoge TV so guess FM will go when the mobile phone companies want it.
