If only the Government would have supported something like this when the radio airwaves go digital.

This would be ideal to replace my redundant TV Aerial.  I guess I could still use the cable connected to my TV Aerial?  Can one aerial support DAB as well as FM?

Yes. A half-wave FM open dipole installed vertically. Excellent for FM and good on DAB too.

If only THIS government would take the LAST government's plans for DAB and scrap them I think we'd all be happy...
