DAB radio mode
Detailed instructions
DAB radio mode receives DAB/DAB+ digital radio and displays information
about the station and programme/track as broadcast.
To enter DAB mode, press ‘source’, use the navigation dial and select
button to choose DAB from the icon menu.
Scanning for stations
The first time you use Octave, or if the station list is empty, the 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:
- New stations may become available 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.
To do a full scan
Select Menu > Scan. Once a scan is complete, the radio returns to playing
the previously-selected station or first station on the station list.
To remove stations that are listed but unavailable
Select Menu > Prune invalid.
