USB DAB in the car?
Hello all,
I have a Tevion head-unit in my car, which has AM/FM, CD and also USB and SD inputs.
Is there a DAB receiver that would use the USB input but also crucially, the car's aerial, so I can listen to 6Music in the car?

Unlikely. How would it connect to the aerial without the car being re-wired? USB cables don't carry signals from the aerial.

Re: USB DAB in the car?
On this point is there anything you can add to the car radio that will enable you to convert it to DAB?
It won't be long before analogue radio is turned off, and people like me will be stuffed.

The only option I can think of is get kit with a FM transmitter.

Just searching the web it says that DAB is obsolete and you should get DAB+.
