I have always listened to Radio-Le-Mans 91.2FM using my mobile phone and at the campsite an FM radio. This year I want to take a DAB radio. Does anyone know if you can get a proper signal at the circuit and in the campsites, specifically the Houx. Where I live, digital is rubbish and I couldn't get anything when in Tenerife earlier this year.

Radio Le Mans wont be broadcast on DAB, just FM as usual. Never had any reception problems from the circuit or campsite with a cheapy FM radio.

DAB is a different format in France I brought my Pure Evoke over and it did not work.
Quick check on Wikipedia says that France only agreed which class to broadcast in summer 2009, so that car radios will work all over Europe. There are 4 different classes of signal, a bit like DVDs for America only. DAB is more expensive to transmit so I don't suppose Radio Le Mans will get round to it for a long time
