Blackfin DAB radio

Started by Leon July 13, 2005
Having used a Sony 2001D radio for about 25 years (an excellent set
which which still works perfectly) I felt like getting myself one of
the new DAB radios. I saw from the latest ADI adverts that a company
called Sonarics Labs is using the Blackfin DSP in their digital radio
modules and found from their web site that it is used in the BT Aviator
DAB/FM radio. Reviews looked excellent so I ordered one yesterday and
got it today. Sound quality is very good and it gets all the DAB
stations, as well as the FM band. FM is processed digitally, of course;
there is a noticeable delay when I have the old analogue radio on at
the same time.

Perhaps it ought to have a sticker on it saying "Blackfin inside"!
