I have three DAB receivers.
One is tiny micro one for personal listening whilst walking, the second a small portable PURE and the last, a high spec HiFi.
In the space of 10ft the mid range unit can pick up a channel "Gold" on 12c/227.36. The other two can't the hifi picks up planet rock when I try to manually select or it comes up as PR on auto tune.
the small one just gives planet rock I don't hav ethe capacity to override the auto tune other than to prompt it.
A second issue with the tiny one is that it loses 5 live at 9:00 and 10:00 and I have to re-tune it.
Any ideas?

DAB radio is not all it's cracked up to be. I have two, one is a portable bought from Lidl on which the majority of stations are unavailable, and the other is part of a micro hi-fi on which you can get most stations but it needs to be contantly rescanned. It's not perfect by any means.0
