    I bought a new DAB radio today and want to listen to Newstalk 106 in Dublin. How can I do this?
    When I scanned in channels I could get reception for only 21 and Newstalk was not one of these.

    I would appreciate advice.

    None of the commercial stations are carried on DAB.

    Newstalk is only available on FM in Dublin. 106.0 would be strong across the city and 107.6 from Saggart supplements coverage along the N7 into Co. Kildare.

    Thanks for replies.
    With the new radio I now realize I cannot get Newstalk 106 on DAB, but reception is great on FM.

    Unfortunately, I no longer can get NEWSTALK on the FM setting of my DAB radio - it completely disappeared one day and can no longer be found! The only place I can find it is in the car or on my phone. Can anyone explain this?
