Title: Will I need to buy DAB for vag?
Post by: jnufcuk on 06 December 2011, 16:17

When tvs move to digital and radio aswell will I need to buy a new dab radio for car?

I wanted a double din for Xmas but will it work in a few months time when it all stops?

Thanks

TV's have already moved to digital.

I can't see them getting rid of FM for a long time yet, DAB had been a bit of a flop so far IMO.

Errrr, eh?

South coast switches off analogue March-June next year.

Analogue radio's not going to be switched off for a long time.
