Hey Dudes,

My commute has increased considerably and I want to get a DAB receiver so I can listen to what I like on the way to work.

Does anyone have any personal recommendations? The choice is pretty varied!

    Although I am most certainly not a dude (those were last sighted in the 1980s, I think?!), I suspect you are asking for a small radio receiver like the Roberts Sports DAB5 or the Pure Move 2520?

    There are other similarly-sized somewhat-cheaper "never heard of the manufacturer" radios in this search.

    Sorry, I meant to put in the car! Should've been clearer... :o

    The Halfords Sonichi DAB adaptor gets good reviews. It'll need the matching aerial and proper fitting.

    Do you want an adapter or do you want to replace your radio unit?

    My Kenwood DAB receiver works very well.
    I had problems with all the other ones I owned, JCB, PURE etc
    Changing the world, one sarcastic comment at a time.
