Scan DAB stations
Digital Audio Broadcasting (DAB) is a digital broad casing
standard for terrestrial reception of digital radio. A list of radio
stations which can be received in Germany is available on the
Internet at www.digitalradio.de.
NOTE:
InGermanyapprox.70%ofthecountry’sareaiscoveredby
digital radio broadcasts (as of Nov. 2011). In the individual
areas however, coverage and provision vary greatly. If the
DAB stations in your region cannot be received or only with
interferences depending on location, in this case you can
switch to the FM band to receive this station. This is only
possible however if these stations are broadcast via VHF.
