4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Quality, 24 Jun 2004
By S. Hall - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
A very solid build and excellent quality sound. Bought because some of the channels I listen to have severe intereference in some area where I live; this radio overcomes all of that very well.
The central button is a four-way with a push-button centre, much like the controls on some joy-pads. I do find this slightly fiddly at times and is the only reason I don't give it five stars.
Amazon also seem to recommend buying AAA batteries with this product - it takes AA (already included).

4.0 out of 5 stars London calling for MOS DAB radio, 15 April 2005
Bought this on the basis of the reviews above and on the Amazon price. Truth is that when you go digital there are gains but there are also some losses.

Advantages...
I'm in SE London and the signal is fine.
I can use my MOS on the train (where I can't get a decent signal with an AM/FM radio) and again the signal is good.
BBC Radio 5 is crystal clear - in fact you can hear mouse clicks as the presenters browse their computers!
The extra channels - The extra BBC channels and BBC World Service are good options.
Setting favourite channels is an excellent feature that I find useful.
Mains socket on radio.

Disadvantages
When the signal is poor or weak you get a digital 'crack' sound that can be painful.
You can lose the signal in a supermarket, somewhere that I thought would be OK.
I've listened to it on an M25 car journey and the signal veers from crystal to non existent.
The headphones are complete rubbish. Apparently they work as an aerial but the sound is so poor and crackly that you'll replace them straight away. Initially I thought this was the radio itself but it was simply the cheap headphones. Maybe the job of being an aerial interferes with the sound quality...
The headphones socket is poorly placed on the side of the radio. It should be at the top like an iPod. It makes life difficult when you want to take the radio out of your pocket or put it in some kind of case for it's protection.
The silver colour looks good until it gets scratched,
Can use up batteries quite quickly, although I use rechargeables.
Amazon says that it 'Automatically compiles list of favourite stations'. I haven't found this feature but you can do it manually.

Bonus...
There's a strange channel that just plays the sounds of the countryside. Quite surreal when you're in Central London

I'm really pleased with this radio although I do think that DAB (Like the Freeview TV service) is still a 'work in progress'. It's expensive compared to analogue radio (there are kids comics that give away free FM radios!) but then that's the downside of being an early adopter!

But if you'd like to listen to BBC Radio 5 Live (and BBC Sport Xtra) in crystal clear sound then put this radio on your wish list. And if the availability at the top of the page says 24 hours then order it now!

2.0 out of 5 stars Ministry of Sound DAB review, 18 July 2005
This was great until two things happened.
First the headphones supplied were not great but obviously no great problem, but secondly the on off button (powering on/off)
didn't always work and in the end got stuck. So I got a refund.
It meant the whole thing was unusable. So only lasted 9 months.
