Am I right in thinking that a "bee sting" arial on the sag indicates that it has a dab radio?
If so are they any better?

I've got the DAB fitted to my Sagaris, great in or near London, useless on the south coast...

Well I'm just outside Southampton if you want to hear it... or not....

Starts working well about J4 of M3, Brighton not too bad, but elsewhere... not good enough signal coverage yet.

Do what I did, get an IPOD kit and forget the radio!

I was quite excited when I got my DAB-fitted Tuscan.

But tehn it's so annoying, because it's always cutting out for "poor reception" (probably because I keep driving out into the styx! ). I prefer to be in the Eurobox for radio listening and the DAB only goes on if I'm stationary.

(Otherwise it's sone nice soothing music, like "A Walk In The Black Forest" cranked up to #11 on the Compact-Discus-Gramophone-Playing-System..... a bit reminiscent of Oddball in Kelly's Heros I suppose!)
