Due to technical reconfiguration of the digital radio services, on 1st March you may have to do a "retune" on your DAB receiver to continue listing to your local Capital, Heart, Choice, XFM, LBC and Kiss stations.

^{Brian Butterworth published on UK Free TV 1st March 2012 at 07:05}

Here are the instructions for DAB retuning from the guide at Re-tuning your Digital Radio:

Most digital radios can be re-tuned by pressing the Auto-Tune or Auto Scan button on your digital radio. It may take a couple of minutes for your radio to update the station list.

However, not all digital radios re-tune in the same way. The instructions below cover some other options.

OPTION 1

Press the Auto Tune or Auto Scan button on your digital radio
The display screen will show 'Autotune Quick scan' / 'Fast Scanning'
As new stations are found the station counter on the right hand side of the display will increase and new stations will be added to the list
This should only take a couple of minutes
Scroll through the display to find the stations available to you

OPTION 2

Press Menu button on your digital radio
Rotate the Tune button until you see 'Autotune' in the display
Select 'Autotune'
As new stations are found the station counter on the right hand side of the display will increase and new stations will be added to the list
This should only take a couple of minutes
Scroll through the display to find the stations available to you

i live in DORSET (5 miles east od YEOVIL) DAB reaception is awful in this area. Does anyone know if the BBC or commercial stations have any plans to give us a decent service / local . The we get is poor no local stations are covered. Good of national stations plus BBC Somerset and BBC Solent would be nice
