Pure Digital DAB 2000

DAB a DAB a DOO

Advantages: Improves radio quality, easy to use
Disadvantages: Wires can get in the way, another thing to remember

Originally I am from London, but I have been living in Bournemouth now since 2001. I get home-sick every so often - you know being surrounded by the beach, grass and the sea makes me miss all the pollution ridden dirty grey concrete streets of home. Odd I know. One thing that keeps me going is that I can quite happily recieve my favourite London radio station, Absolute (previously Virgin) on MW - but it's not great quality I'll admit. So, when I first heard about these - it was actually through Absolute radio who were running competitions to win them, and after failing to win one myself, I thought - OK, I'll buy one. Now, it is pretty easy to use, and it has functions similar to the digital channels on TV now where you can pause and rewind live radio - which I haven't used except through boredom when waiting for the kid to ...

Pure 1500 handheld DAB / FM Radio

Advantages: Good Quality reception, easy to use.
Disadvantages: Navigator button too small, On the expensive side, No case included with radio

I purchased a Pure 1500 Handheld DAB / FM Radio and had it for one week as I did not get on very well with the buttons. I consequently found something else in its place. Here is the lowdown of the Pure 1500 handheld DAB Radio. What it does: FM and DAB with RDS (Radio Data System) which displays the radio broadcast data, ie: The station name, song data, artist data etc. Rechargable battery which boasts to last for upto 24 hours using DAB. 20 Presets (10 FM stations and 10 DAB stations which means your favourite stations can be stored and accessed at the touch of one button. 5 EQ Settings Hardware: The casing is made from metal and was slightly bigger than I was anticipating. The device has plastic silver buttons (which seemed a bit tacky and I am not sure why they didn't use metal buttons instead (maybe a weight issue ...

Review of Pure Digital Pocket DAB 1500

The Pure Highway saved my life

Advantages: Very Portable and very easy to use
Disadvantages: Suffers from poor signal in some remote areas

I use the Pure Highway every day in my truck and I have to say it is brilliant. It tunes into a spare FM band on my in cab radio and sounds first class. It is so easy to use and looks great as well. The Pure Highway fits into a small space on my windscreen out of the wiper swipe and keeps me legal. The Highway takes its power from the cigarette lighter and has an internal Arial that is fixed to the windscreen. I found this system ok for most journeys but when I was in more remote parts of the country I suffered from digital drop out. The pure allows you to fade this rather than here that awful screeching sound. I eventually purchased an outside Arial that fits on the cab roof via a magnetic base. This allows me 100% coverage all over the UK so far. I rely on my Pure Highway every day and I have to say it has never let me down ...
