info pls

Hello G-cptn, Australia will commence digital radio broadcasting in the new year with a new format DAB+.More info and services available (apparently).

So could you tell me if digital in the UK runs parallel to or as part of the normal analog AM and FM band services? AM here is roughly 500 khz to 1700 khz.FM 88 to 108 mhz.

Does the radio you use have a bog standard AM rx or have I mis-understood your post ?
AM analog, FM analog and FM digital?

Apart from clarity what else gives digital the edge?

I have not seen any DAB or DAB+ rx's in detail but the ones I've seen on the net appear to be FM only with some neat features.

apologies for thread drift but trying learn a bit before venturing into the stores.
