Station List
The first time you select DAB radio mode, or if the station list is empty, radio automatically
performs a full scan to see what stations are available. You may also need to start a scan
manually to update the list of stations for one of the following reasons:
⚫ Available stations change from time to time
⚫ If reception was not good for the original scan (for example the antenna was not up),
this may result in an empty or incomplete list of available stations.
⚫ If you have poor reception of some stations (burbling), you may wish to list only stations
with good signal strength.
A question mark before a station in a list indicates that station is currently unavailable.
Depending on the cause of the loss of signal this may be only temporary. Stations that
unlikely to be available again (for example you have moved out of the broadcast range of a
station), can be removed from the station list.
Scan for stations
To start a scan manually, select Menu > Scan. Once the scan is complete, the radio shows a
list of available stations. The manual tune menu option allows the user to select a particular
channel and display the signal strength for that channel.
Remove stations from list
To remove stations that a listed but unavailable, select Menu > Prune invalid.
Selecting stations
To listen to or change a station, select Menu > Station List and press OK knob. Scroll knob
control to select station you want to listen to. Stations listed with a ‘?’ question mark in front
of them are not available. Once selected, the station plays and the screen shows ‘playing’
information about the station, track or show broadcast by the station. Alternatively, pressing
either the left and right keys, jumps to the next station up or down in the station list. Preset
stations can be stored and recalled as described in Section 4.5 presets.
Now playing information
While the stream is playing, the screen shows its name and DLS (Dynamic Label segment)
information broadcast by the station giving real-time information such as programme name,
track title and contact details. Stereo broadcasts are indicated with an icon at the top of the
screen. To view further information, press Info. Each time you press Info, another set of
information is displayed, cycling through DLS text, programe type, ensemble name/frequency,
signal strength/error rate, bit rate/codec/channels, today’s date and DL Plus (if available).
