DAB is dire when played back through a decent hifi even with good

So how come it works in cars?


The engine noise masks most of its short comings. The only thing that
DAB does better than FM is the silent gaps inbetween programme
material.


You have the only FM receiver that doesn't suffer from multi-path,
then?


I don't spend a lot of time in big cities. Multipath is only a serious
problem when there are large reflecting structures about.


Then best to qualify your comments about any transmission system.

However, many portable radios will exhibit multi-path just with a person
moving about in the same room.
