It’s a digital cliff. Analog fades away but is never a true replication digital remains stable for over but then vanishes.

At the same quality dab is still perfectly long after fm becomes gabled. It then vanishes.

The problem with dab in early days was the lower strength, the poor quality decoding, and the lower bitratr than should be been used for the codec.

Haha. The DAB+ signals are compressed as much as possible.
