Analogue radio is the tech that just won't die

The only advantage I find with DAB is the Classic FM current track title display. Unfortunately - often it annoyingly just says to look at their web site for the play list.

As the title text is so short - why can't they also do that on the text subchannel on their FM transmissions?

Several times this week two of the three Sony DAB radios have had serious drop-outs on all stations. Switching them to FM has been fine - no sign of any interference. The bedroom one is usually on FM anyway - as in DAB mode it automatically switches on a cooling fan that is irritating when listening at low volume in the middle of the night.
