Sounds perfectly fine to me

Hil-arious

And your reaction to the other practical point(s) about having a
satellite setup

Tell me Steve do you ever think about anything else? Is your life
obsessed with DAB 'quality'? Do you wake up in a cold sweat shouting
'128kbps'? Do you bore your friends and family with it?

Could you complete that sentence please?

Of course I do.

I freely admit that I think about it too much, but I just get wound up by
the DAB industry ****s that think it's acceptable and pass DAB off as "the
future of radio".


Do you wake up in a cold sweat shouting
'128kbps'?


Er, no.


Do you bore your friends and family with it?


I never mention it actually. Sorry to disappoint you.

DAB sounds worse than Freeview, digital satellite, cable, broadband
internet and FM

Don't ask me why, but I read that as "Is your wife obsessed with DAB
'quality'?"

On that note, my girlfriend isn't obsessed with DAB audio quality, but
nonetheless thinks it sounds crap. She's not an audiophile, and would be
quite content with a mini system rather than a proper hi-fi. This is
something that I haven't really thought about up until now, but, looking at
the situation, it is quite plainly obvious that those who don't have a
problem with DAB audio quality must have less-than-perfect hearing.

I've added a digital satellite receivers page to my web site:

http://www.digitalradiotech.co.uk/dsat_rx.htm

Compiling the page reinforced just what a rip-off DAB is when you can get a
full DSat system including receiver with digital output and dish with LNB
for as little as £99, or a receiver with LED channel number display and coax
digital output for £69, bearing in mind that the audio quality of the
digital radio stations on DSat wipes the floor with DAB.

Are these all products you've tested and recommend, Steve? If not, it
seems an oddly random list.

There's a much better one at
