multimedia broadcasting system that transmits
audio programmes with a quality comparable
to that of CDs. This is made possible by the use
of a microcomputer in the DAB tuner which
uses the radio signals sent from multiple
aerials and multi-path signals (reflected radio

set by the CT function and the actual time.
Notes
• The DAB system is actually in a testing phase.
This means some services have not been
sufficiently defined or are presently being tested.
At present, such services are not supported by
the optional DAB tuner unit XT-100DAB.
• DAB programmes are broadcast in Band-III (174
to 240 MHz) and L-Band (1,452 to 1,492 MHz),
with each band divided into channels (41 in
Band-III and 23 in L-Band). One ensemble is
broadcast per channel by each DAB station.
• When you change the mode from FM3 to DAB,
all the AF TA modes stay active.
• When you change any of the AF TA modes in
DAB, that mode stays active in FM1.
