I've had the same. BC2 DAB aerial would only pick up signals in very specific room locations, and yet a cheap Pure Evoke portable radio with telescopic aerial could get a DAB station anywhere in the home. It's all very odd. My current DAB aerial location is internal, right in the corner of a room. Yet if the aerial is taped to a window in the same room (facing the transmitter) it receives nothing!

Sorry to say in my experience I have known a number of DAB modules to go faulty 🙁 or n the BS4

The unit has now gone to B&O for repair, so hopefully once back home I'll be able to receive some DAB stations.

I've got an aerial company to install a DAB aerial on the roof by the side of the TV aerial so hopefully there should be no further problems!!

Fingers crossed. 

 

Hi Paul.

 

How did you get on?

 

I have inherited a beosound 4 and I am trying to get the dab to work. Not sure how to set it up correctly. Can you advice?

 

What was wrong with your system

Hi

 

I have BC2 and BS4 both with DAB

Finding all stations with no problem...just without any soud :(.

I think you have to instal DAB+ modul.

 

 

Hi,

I took it to B&O and they replaced the DAB unit and everything works now.

The DAB radio would not tune to any station, even with an external aerial connected.

Cost of repair £310.
