Digital radios are gadgets that can receive and broadcast sound and other information. They are used for a two-way communication as well. However, one-way digital radio standards are used for broadcasting purposes. DAB or “digital audio broadcasting” is a common standard used for broadcasting.
It is possible to receive at least 40 radio stations on DAB in the UK. These stations range from national to local and regional. Over 85 per cent of the population can receive DAB. Digital radios can pick up a wide variety of stations that play music from dance and hip-hop to jazz, classical, country, pop and rock. There are also stations dedicated to local and regional music. There are educational and entertainment stations for children, and stations targeting the elderly, sports fans, world music listeners, environmentalists and more. With so many stations, there is something for everyone.
With digital radio, the sound quality is excellent with no disturbances such as hisses or crackles, voice fading or an overlap. With a digital radio, you don’t have to know where a particular station is. With the help of a display screen, you just need to press a button to tune in to a favourite station. Some digital radios can let you rewind from a live programme to another that played a few hours ago. You can record your favourite programmes as they happen or set a time to record a particular programme.
Digital radios are a great travelling companion as well because they don’t need to be re-tuned since the broadcasting is on the same frequency wherever you are. They have an LCD screen to display the details of the music that you are listening to. They also carry an electronic programme guide to help select an entire week’s programmes in advance.
Many different types of digital radio are available. The decision depends on what you need the radio for. These radios can range from handheld instruments and a small kitchen radio to a hi-fi system or even a home theatre system. They come in various sizes and with different features. Some digital radios also come with a FM radio, a CD player, an MP3 player and a cassette player too. They work with both batteries and the power mains.
Digital radios are available on television and on the Internet too. A recent invention is the iDAB that can be connected to an iPod as a base unit so that you can listen to a station anywhere.
