What I'd like to know (and I apologise for still being UK-centric, and
for perhaps drifting a little off-topic) is why the broadcast I receive
on my super-duper ultra-sleek new DAB radio is a couple of seconds
behind the broadcast I receive on my clapped-out old FM transistor
radio?<br>
<br>
I once read a very complicated technical explanation about how DAB
signals work and why, therefore, they aren't in sync with analogue FM
broadcasts, but if we are all going completely digital shouldn't all
broadcasts be equally accurate? If I want to set my
watch/clock/microwave/whatever by the time signal before "The World at
One" on BBC Radio 4, shouldn't I get the DAB signal and the FM signal
at exactly the same moment?<br>
