We listened to a Chinese programme on late afternoons for about an hour.


However due to DAB taking over it is no longer broadcast.


Can anyone please suggest  a few DAB radios that can tune in to Chinese stations, or perhaps station numbers?


I have about 150 pounds to spend but would like to spend less!!


Thanks.

If I've not totally misunderstood the consept, DAB is only broadcasted locally.

For non-local stations, in the digital age there's Internet radio.

Hey Fahnsen, don't be so dismissive.

It's dangerous to assume that the poster is in the UK - he or she may well be somewhere else in the world that once had a Chinese service, but which is now missing it.

But anyway yes, internet radio is the best bet.

You're right of course.

If in China, there's two questions to be answered:

1, are these stations available as DAB?

2, what DAB system is used in the area?
