I like DAB but not like this
Its mixed with FM stations, u cannot even manually tune DAB, it even prevents manual tunning on FM if its active
and because of it you cannot even turn AF off...
So lets get rid of it
Once DAB is a separate entity like on a Tuareg, then I will add it back

Thats interesting
the station should have 1kW signal from Šance, which is very close to me
but today I was bearly able to receive it
As soon as you go down the hill the signal is lost

This year is not all bad, because since January the 3rd Regional Radio moved from its crowded frequency on 1584khz, to 1440khz
At only 500W and distance of 450km the signal is quite good
And they also play the music I like, which is quote nice
If only they would increase their power to 1-2kW and I would have similar signal to RTL so I could listen to it
This one is just a DX catch, as listening is a bit hard due to bad signal

I am not happy about RAI shuting down, I would rather see country radio overpowered (since that means more stations on MW), but now I can finaly get some Country music on 1062

Just a check if everything is allright
As you can see, everything is still there: RTRS on 92.7, RTV USK on 105.1, Radio Prijedor on 97.9, FREE Radio on 98.3, Radio Velkaton on 107.0, and BIG Radio 2 on 101.4 (I had a hard time getting this one because it was dark and I didnt know where to position my antena :) )

I was here: (07°57′25″N 80°45′35″E) https://g.co/kgs/iYgmR5
the mountains elevation is 349m
There was quite a bit more stations then in Hotel (some stations like 91.4 Fox were from Colombo, others I didnt know), but the problem is that u pay 30$ ticket and you are supposed to go up, listen to your guide, wait while he shows you pictures of all the 500 wifes the king had, then go on top, then go down again
I wanted to stay up for longer, but he complained that we need to go down. I asked him if I can come down later by myself, and he refused
I brought about 6kg backpack up there, and you tell me I have to go down, while I finaly started to enjoy myself.....

Well here we are
this is the new VW Golf
I was able to activate AM with my trickery but look what we have (this thing can bearly get Radio Romania, which is the strongest station on the dial)
There is clearly an antena missing, and the car makes so much noise when its on
People would say: so what, just bring your own radio. Well bohoo I cannot use is due that amount of noise in the car
I am not happy right now, and new is not always better... (sadly I was forced into this car, as its not mine and people around me dont care about such things...)
I realy hope that AM Radio vehicle act passes: https://www.congress.gov/bill/118th-congress/senate-bill/1669
Because then least Americans will not need to suffer this
I dont know how to fix this and nobody that knows cares about this things so there is nothing I can do....
PS: the user interface is terrible, FM and DAB are combined, DAB has no manual tunning, with FM I needed to activate that with my tools
Touch controls have almost no feedback so u dont even know if u pressed a button
volume is not evel lid on the radio so u are blindly touching the display hoping to hit the right button
I heard that the new model will at least have physical controls on the steering wheel
