DAB/DAB+ radio mode (optional)
DAB mode receives DAB/DAB+ digital radio and displays information about the station, stream, and track
playing.
To enter DAB mode, either press and hold the Menu knob > Main menu > DAB, or rotate the Source
knob until the DAB icon is highlighted and briefly press the Source knob in to select.
Scanning for DAB stations
Be sure the rear telescoping antenna is fully extended. The first time you select DAB mode, or if
the DAB station list is empty, Solo and Duetto automatically
performs a full scan to find what DAB stations are available. You
may also need to start a scan manually to update the list of stations
for one of the following reasons:
l. Available stations change from time to time.
m. If reception was not good for the original scan (for example, the
antenna was not up), this may result in an empty or incomplete
list of available stations.
n. If you have poor reception of some stations (burbling), you may wish to list only stations with
good signal strength.
o. You moved to a new location that may have some different stations.
To start a scan manually in DAB mode, press and hold the Menu knob > Scan.
Once the scan is complete, Solo or Duetto shows a list of available DAB stations.
A question mark before a station in a list indicates the station is currently unavailable. Depending
on the cause of the loss of signal this may be only temporary.
Stations that are unlikely to be available again (for example, you have moved out of the broadcast
range of a station), can be removed from the station list. To remove stations that are listed but
unavailable, in DAB mode press and hold the Menu knob > Prune invalid.
Selecting DAB stations
To listen to or change a DAB station in DAB mode, rotate the Menu knob and a list of DAB
stations from which you can select is presented. Stations listed with a “?” (question mark) in front of
them are not available. Once selected, the DAB station plays and the screen shows information
about the station, track, or show broadcast by the station.
Alternatively, pressing either the Next Track or Track Back remote control keys jumps to the next
DAB station up or down in the station list.
Preset stations can be stored and recalled as described in Presets.
Now playing information
While the DAB station is playing, the screen shows its name and DLS (Dynamic Label Segment)
information broadcast by the DAB station giving real-time information such as programme name,
track title, and contact details. Stereo broadcasts are indicated with an icon at the top of the screen.
To view further information, press the remote’s Info key.
Each time you press Info , another set of information is displayed, cycling through DLS text,
programme type, ensemble name/frequency, signal strength/error rate, bit rate/codec/channels,
today’s date, and DL Plus (if available).
