About DAB About Digital Audio Broadcasting (DAB) DAB digital radio is a new way of broadcasting radio via a network of terrestrial transmitters. It provides listeners with more choice and information delivered in crystal clear, crackle-free sound quality. – The technology allows the receiver to lock on to the strongest signal it can find. – With DAB digital stations there are no frequencies to remember, and sets are tuned by station name, so there’s no returning on the move.
