Hi

Does anyone know if a DAB radio will work abroad? (France)

Would we be able to tune in to any uk stations?

Thanks

Hi, you can get DAB in france, it depends on where you are take a look at this link http://www.radionumerique.org/carte.php?menu=5&carte=2008

However you probably won't find any English stations!

I bought a DAB radio 6 months ago, I really wish I bought one soon- I love mine.

You should get French stations on DAB in France. The range is shorter than analogue transmissions so picking up UK stations on DAB is not on. You could use a satellite.

There are still lots of areas in Scotland that do not have any DAB coverage.
