DAB Radio in the new GTI
« on: 18 February 2014, 18:00 »
Hello guys,

The DAB radio is excellent however I seem to struggle picking up certain radio stations (namely capital) in the Midlands area and some of the other stations seem to lose signal intermittently. Is this a common thing with DAB radio?

capitol fm has poor midlands coverage, I found the same not just with golf but also other cars i test drove that had DAB.

issue with DAB (as with other digital wireless) is that it's either there or not... remember this well from using encrypted digital military radio....
