I think that DAB has three 'grades': mono, 'joint stereo' and 'full stereo'. AFAIK only radio 3 is in full stereo (at least some of the time).

In my expereice FM stereo is a only slightly more noisy than FM mono, provided the signal strength is good.

from memory when was designing said stuff about 5dB worse.
