I have no first hand experience with this but I understand the DAB+ is a few seconds behind the actual play, making it not very useful in my opinion.
About 7 seconds. They are actually pretty poor for taking to the footy.
Rep, did you mean to type sports grounds (you wrote "great for taking to sports groups")? They are not, if you're talking about listening to a broadcast of a game you're watching, because they are around 7 seconds behind the play.
If you meant sports groups, like listening to the footy while you're supposed to be watching your kids at footykick or little athletics, yes, they're perfect.
Thanks for the spelling correction, all fixed now.
Yep, now you've got they are good for sports grouds.
Lucky because they are useless for sports grounds.
This does not retail anywhere near $119, this sells for less than $100 everywhere including the normal price at Big W and can be obtained for $73 + shipping from Powerbuys which is about $50 less than you claim. Pretty deceptive if you ask me.
The $119 is the suggested retail price and selling price at Bush Australia http://www.bushaustralia.com.au/details.aspx?pid=192&stid=31…, we are still selling it cheaper than anyone else.
I didn't say you weren't the cheapest, I was just saying that you choosing the most expensive supplier as a price comparison is deceptive.
Perhaps it's a new strategy - wholesaler creates an online store with exorbitant/unrealistic prices so that retailers can claim to be bargain priced. Everyone wins.
great for taking to sports grouds
The delay makes them useless for use at sports events…
Except you can pretend you have see seven seconds into the future super-power eyes
The delay makes them useless for use at sports events…
unless you are listening to a different match….
I had one of these that I bought off eBay, it was terrible. Broke after a few months, and I won't bother to replace it. If you want a radio to listen to at the footy, get yourself a Sangean AM/FM. Terrific little units, feature packed and similar in price to this.
yep, these are great… DSE used to sell them under their own name for around $26, but sadly they don't anymore… Best portable radio i've ever owned.
This is pretty much the standard price they sell for. Not a bargain….
I have ready many bad reviews for this product as well.Ebay sells for $56 delivered:

You've compared a refurbished item to a new item. Thanks for trying to help but I'll revoke the negative vote since it's an off comparison. :)
Is there any delay between the DAB+ and AM version of the radio station? ie. If I got to the football, am I able to listen to the DAB version of 6PR and have commentary match up with the live action?
