What is DAB system?
Digital Audio Broadcasting (DAB) can deliver digital
quality sound without any annoying interference
and signal distortion. Furthermore, it can carry text,
pictures, and data. When transmitting, DAB combines
several programmes (called “services”) to form one
“ensemble.” In addition, each “service”—called
“primary service”—can also be divided into its
components (called “secondary service”). A typical
ensemble has six or more programmes (services)
broadcast at the same time.
By connecting the DAB tuner, this unit can do the
following:
• Tracing the same programme automatically
—Alternative Frequency Reception (see “DAB AF” on
page 14).
It is recommended to use DAB tuner KT-DB1000
with your unit. If you have another DAB tuner,
consult your JVC IN-CAR ENTERTAINMENT dealer.
• Refer also to the Instructions supplied for your DAB
tuner.
