thats something i would very much like to have and i keep looking for a DAB module on ebay but nothing comes up..doesnt your hybrid tv have radio stations on it..


Not that I can see, no. I know that DVB tuners have digital radio, but AFAIK this isn't DAB, albeit there are the same stations available.

I spoke with Wiggs about this and he tells me he's installed and enabled a DAB tuner but can't find a way of accessing it on the screen Got - 2017 SDV8 Autobiography in Loire Blue

i seem to recall that thread where he mentioned he is having problems with an aftermarket unit, lets hope he solves it..

i read somewhere that on a long journey that DAB isnt good because it looses signal often but around a town for instance its ok.. ... - .- -.

A lot of people give DAB a bad name because of the perceived bad reception, but it has a lot do do with the antenna. On my 5 series I used a link from the TV antenna (which was in the rear window), and it was very good, so if I was to use DAB in my RR I would try the same thing, otherwise I would invest in a good roof mounted one.

I just don't like external add-ons, so I'm trying very hard to resist the Pure and Revo DAB tuners, but if Wiggs can't resolve the OEM solution, I think they might be the only option. Got - 2017 SDV8 Autobiography in Loire Blue

Tends to be that on Flea-Bay, if sellers want to fool people into buying something that's not current, they "forget" to mention such things as digital and hybrid in the hope that some schmuck won't think to ask the obvious questions before bidding!

Or maybe I'm just a cynical old git! Whistle Got - 2017 SDV8 Autobiography in Loire Blue

Just keep in mind my comments about the words "digital" and "hybrid". I fitted a hybrid TV tuner to my BMW bought from Flea-Bay and I was amazed at the dirty tricks some unscrupulous sellers employ. I've heard of some even putting digital or hybrid stickers on old analogue units that have been swapped out.

Caveat emptor and all that!!
