DAB antenna

Couple of questions for those who may know....

Is the fin on the D4 now a DAB antenna?

If yes, then would it fit on a D3?

they do list a DAB radio aerial for the D4
LR014110 £96.60 forum price

The seal for the glass roof for it is the same as D3 so should be same footprint as the D3 version..

Thanks Nick. Will the same seal fit to a poor person's steel roof?

I would go for a 3rd Party DAB antenna which you will get from about £20 upwards.

Thanks Phil, in fact I'd already found that site and ordered the same antenna.

Assuming all goes well and reception is ok, I may invest in a "factory" DAB fin from Nick. If anybody sees a D4 in a breakers yard with a DAB fin, let me know Thumbs Up

I use the earlier version of the one you've bought with my Pure Highway and it works fine. Don't think it will work with other DABS though ISTR.

Yep, the connector on the Highway is a 2.5mm jack (unusal for an antenna connector). Most other use SMB connectors, but adapters are available on the same site.

BTW, if anyone needs SMB connectors for their satnav display both these and preformed leads are available on the same site. You can just put whatever connector you need on the other end.
