As much as I love digital radio, I think it's an extreme negative that it immediately becomes unlistenable if the signal is poor, whereas on analogue I can listen (in poor but functional quality admittedly) to stations from France, Norway, the Netherlands and numerous others. This is something I am not looking forward to losing, and I hope that the technology improves greatly before we move on...

The advantage of digital is that signal degradation is more easily coped with.

But as with all things digital - either there _is_ enough signal to receive, or there isn't. And if there isn't you get dropouts where you can't hear anything at all.

Aye, give me fuzzy analogue any day!
