Excellent reception (after retuning) sitting at ADI in Castle Combe, watched a fair bit of F1 coverage from Singapore - Practice 3 was on in the morning.
Even got Neil's approval (almost) for the unobtrusive location of my twin diversity aerials in the rear quarter light windows. ![]() For reference this is (or is very similar to) the unit and aerials I bought: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/180857925423

Today I was working inside the car (on the lumbar pads, but that's another story) and put the radio on. I did switch between DAB and FM and one thing that was then very noticeable was the total lack of background hiss on DAB. I was listening to Radio 4 on both.
I guess when you're driving you wouldn't notice it on FM due to assorted background noises, but with the ignition off the difference was quite surprising.
