Glad to hear I'm not alone with the interference. The real problem for me is that we often have multiple radios on the same channel, one in the kitchen, one in the lounge, and one in the dining room. With FM they are all in sync. With DAB they are marginally out of sync (and with poor sound) which drives us mad. I don't have an Internet radio in the kitchen so that option isn't open to me, but I suspect they would be out of sync as well. The only other problem is that all digital versions lag real time to some degree, but I'm retired, so what's the rush?!
