The BBC cannot recommend individual Installers. We advise you check that your antenna is able to receive DAB, in the majority of cases you will need a new antenna. An exception is "helically wound" FM aerials. It is important to minimise the loss by using good quality cable and connectors.ĭAB uses different frequencies from FM radio. If you have an external aerial, a radio signal will always lose some of its strength as it passes along the cable and through the connectors. Ideally, this should be on the roof or high up on the outside of the building, though it may also give good results in the loft. An indoor aerial may be good enough, but for the best reception use an outdoor one.

DAB aerials are different from FM or TV aerials, so you need a good quality DAB-specific aerial.

Broken aerials may affect reception.Īn externally mounted aerial can be attached to many types of DAB portable radio and hi-fi systems. Tilting and swivelling the aerial will help to get the best signal. Telescopic aerials on portable radios should be fully extended to receive a good signal. From time to time radios should be re-tuned in order to discover new stations. Most DAB radios come with built in signal strength meters which can be helpful. Portable radios should be tuned in a location in your home where the best possible signal is received. Most DAB radios can be tuned easily at the touch of a button. If you live in a basement flat, or your building is steel-framed or reinforced concrete, coverage may be affected.
