Pocket handheld DAB digital radios
You can buy carry-around personal digital radios that fit in your pocket. Sometimes the headphone cable doubles up as the aerial, whilst other radios use an extending aerial to pick up DAB stations. You can often see what song is currently being played, or what show is currently airing.

Personal DAB radios are useful when you're on the move. National digital radio stations can be picked up well on a train or in the car across large areas of the UK, particularly in and around large cities.

DAB digital radios featuring MP3 playback


You can buy handheld DAB radios featuring a facility for playback of MP3 (and/or WMA) music files. Some have a built-in memory (usually 128 or 256MB), whilst others read files from industry-standard SD memory cards - the type commonly found in digital cameras. Check the key features points to learn more about each product.

Oono miniDAB 2Plus2 handheld recording DAB digital radio

Oono miniDAB 2Plus2
Oono miniDAB 2Plus2 pocket recording DAB digital radio

overview:

The successor to the Oono mini DAB One, the Oono mini DAB 2Plus2 radio stores MP3 files in its 2GB internal memory and has a SD card slot capable of reading memory cards of up to 2GB in size; thus the Oono offers up to 4GB of memory for MP3, WMA and Ogg VORBIS tracks. The audio recorder can record DAB, FM and has a line input for direct-to-memory recordings in MP3 format. Recordings can then be transferred to a PC via an SD card (not supplied). There are ten separate timers to bring the radio on to either record DAB or FM, or play a file or live radio. Additionally, the timers can be set as either a one-off event, or a scheduled occurence, either every day, every weekday, Mon-Sat or on a specified day each week.

Improvements over the miniDAB one are greater DAB sensitivity using a different DAB chipset in the receiver, 2GB internal memory - up from 128MB - and updated looks.

The Oono miniDAB features a large, 6 line 160x96 matrix display, measuring 2 inches corner to corner. Weighing in at 97 grams including lithium polymer rechargeable battery (which takes 5 hours to charge from flat) and just under 100mm tall by 56mm wide by 19mm thick, the Oono mini DAB One radio keeps going for up to 8 hours on DAB, 22 on FM, MP3 and voice record/playback and 6 hours on DAB record. A DC charger/adaptor is supplied. The tiny 16mm internal speaker will even let you listen in without the need for headphones and plays ten percent louder than the Oono miniDAB One.
