S'funny because I gave away my Roberts DAB as the reception on both DAB and FM was awful. Got a Pure and excellent reception on both. Wonder if it depends on the area you live in? Our DAB signal is from Brighton (Whitehawk) and Beddingham (R Sussex.) Presume Eastbourne gets signal from Heathfield?
Very easy tuning, more stations including Radio 5 live and Radio 5 extra. Personally would not be without my digital. Pure make the best ones. Check though that your area can receive BBC Sussex's DAB signal
