    Personal DAB Radios

    Anyone got any views on this item...

    Pure Move 2500 Rechargeable Personal Digital DAB/FM Radio...
    http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B005J3PLX..._df_B005J3PLXE

    For the desk at client co where FM reception could be described as patchy. I have a sony one which could be described as absolute tulipe and struggles to hold a station.

    USB recharge is a must.

    Cheers

    Don't know this item, but we have several Pure, Roberts, and Tivoli radios, and ISTM that Pure are the best DAB radios around.

    At your Client Co, FM is patchy but DAB is OK? That's unusual.

      Sorry, not the dab in here but the previous personal DAB radio I used was just in general rubbish and would not hold a station even out doors.

      I think I will dig it out and give it a try to get a benchmark anyway.

      In the middle of a large building so I am worried I might buy the thing and get no reception at all.

        DAB is a pile of crap.

        I have a Roberts Sports DAB and while it's a lovely little thing, the DAB reception in my area is atrocious. I have to be standing outside in the middle of my garden to get anything on it.

        Thank God for wifi, iPhones and TuneIn Radio is all I can say...

          Yes, that was the experience of my SONY one.

            Going by the banging tunes that emminate from the bathroom while the females in the household get ready in the mornings, Tottenham must have a great DAB signal.
