good idea to carry out a manual scan every now and then to make sure that you have
the most up to date station listing stored within the memory of your Radio. If you have
moved your Radio to another location,
e.g.: if you go on holiday, then it’s also a good idea to carry out a manual scan.
In DAB mode:

DAB display information
When listening to a DAB station you can change the information that will appear
on the display. There are several dierent types of information that are sent by the
broadcaster.
• Dynamic Label Segment (DLS)
This is scrolling text information supplied by the broadcaster. Information could be
the name of an artist or music title, DJ’s name, contact details for the radio station
etc.
• Signal Strength
An empty will appear on the display to indicate the minimum signal strength for
acceptable listening. The row of solid rectangles indicate the actual signal strength
that you are receiving. The stronger the signal, the further to the right the row of
solid rectangles
will be.
• Program Type (PTY)
Such as ‘Rock’, ‘Pop‘, Talk’ or ‘News’
• Multiplex Name
Displays the broadcasting area and collection of radio stations on this frequency
e.g.: BBC National DAB, Digital 1 Network.
• Channel and Frequency
e.g.: 12B 225.648 MHz
• Signal error
This is displayed as a number between 0-99. It would not be possible to
satisfactorily listen to a ratio station with a signal error rate of 30 or above. Try
adjusting the aerial or relocating your radio to improve reception.
• Signal information
The data rate at which the signal is being transmitted.
• Time and date
Supplied by the broadcaster.
1. Repeatedly press and release the ‘Info’ button on the front of the Radio to cycle
through the dierent information options.

12
Dynamic range control (DRC)
In DAB mode:
The dynamic range for each radio programme is set by the broadcaster for each radio
station and may be dierent for the types of programme broadcast, such as pop or
classical music or a chat show. The dynamic range control signal is transmitted in
parallel with the audio signal for each programme and with your radio you can use this
control signal to expand or compress the dynamic range (the dierence between the
loudest and quietest sounds) of the reproduced audio signal. Changing the dynamic
range can aect the ‘loudness’ and/or ‘quality of sound’ of the programme that you
hear so that it will be more suited to your listening conditions and your own personal
listening requirements. e.g. in a noisy environment, where quiet sounds might be
swamped, setting the compression to maximum will ‘boost’ the quiet sounds, whilst
keeping the loudest sounds at their original level.
There are 3 levels of compression:
• DRC o: no compression. This is the default setting.
• DRC low: medium compression.
• DRC high: maximum compression.
1. Press and release the ‘Menu’ button, and use the ‘Tune/Select’ rotary control to
scroll to ‘<DRC>’.
2. Press the rotary control to ‘Select’. The current DRC setting will have an ‘*’ next to
it.
3. Use the rotary control to scroll through the options and press the rotary control to
confirm.
4. Press and release the ‘Menu’ button to return to the station display.

13
Telescopic aerial

right of the display.
When your radio is in FM mode it can receive Radio Data System or ‘RDS’ information
if this is being transmitted by the broadcaster. RDS information will often include the
station name, detail about the programme and the current time.
