kingantti1874 Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 Yes.. The dab in my car was basically not working.. Had to switch to fm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biko Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 Yep started not getting a signal in the car on Friday in Edinburgh and East Lothian. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bert Le Clos Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 Same. Hardly getting any digital stations in the car. I'm hoping it might have been as issue caused by the wind and snow and they get it sorted sharpish. I'd forgotten how terrible local FM radio was and I point black refuse to listen to the trumpet who does Radio 1 breakfast. It's been Radio 2 and Five Live since I lost digital signal.

bigladatthebackpost Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 I'm beginning to go mental. AM is fine when 5Live/Radio Scotland are covering matches but I'm struggling without 6Music. Had to listen to a wobbly Absolute 80s in the shower this morning, it was all I could get. Turned it off and sang my own stuff when Paul Young got played. PAUL YOUNG?! I'll go up there tonight with the screwdriver set I got in a cracker if they don't fix it soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig_ Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 If the DAB signal's still not working, try using TuneIn Radio or the IPlayer Radio (for BBC stations obv.) on your phone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Horatio Caine Posted January 19, 2015 Share Posted January 19, 2015 My DAB sounds as if it is coming from under water. Starts off not too bad then goes rapidly downhill. Always end up switching to FM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
