Well Ford Ennals would say that as his job and that of his team are on the line. Considering the numbers it begs the question shouldn't we be turning off the DAB transmitters?

It's not merely "overestimated"... the method chosen amounts to fraud.

How many DAB sets have been sold in the UK, and how many are no longer used?

 

[Pete the Feet]

We have 3 and don't listen to any, apart from the one in the main system occasionaly but in the FM mode only.
We also gave the father in law one and that isn't used either.
I also know a plumber who doesn't listen to as a site radio anymore as that also sounds shite and eats batteries.
Stick that in your pipe Mr Ennals.

Just kill DAB, sounds shite against FM and am fed up of all this digital crap. Half decent rain cloud goes over and you lose all signal rather than just a bit of hiss in the back ground. Keep Sky HD though
