DAB: United Kingdom: Ford selects DAB
|
Ford dealers in the United Kingdom are now selling vehicles fitted
with DAB digital radio receivers.
Annika Nyberg, President of the World DAB Forum, greeted the move
as "one of the most important developments in DAB Digital
Radio".
Ford is inviting car-buyers to call at their local Ford dealers to
gain first-hand experience of DAB in-car radio on vehicles equipped
with the Blaupunkt Woodstock DAB 52 receiver. The car giant is
offering the installation of DAB receivers as an after-fit in all
its UK models and can also install them in most makes of
car.
For the World DAB Forum president, "Ford’s commitment to DAB
Digital Radio is a major milestone in the widespread proliferation
and adoption of the DAB system. I am confident that others will
follow its lead. Following the successful Christmas sales of
in-home DAB digital radios - when almost every product on the
shelves was sold in the UK - this gives the DAB bandwagon further
momentum," Annika Nyberg added.
