Pure Highway 200 In-Car DAB+/DAB Digital Radio FM Adapter with AUX Input for Music Playback – DAB Car Radio Adapter/Transmitter, Black

Product Information

I think I read somewhere that the supplied internal aerial shouldn't be used with heated windscreens like those fitted to Mondeo's. When I plug the power lead in the display lights up for a couple of seconds then goes out.Sometimes it will work for a minute or two before switching off. Same here, I travel about 800 miles per week, mainly around the South-West and I just got fed up with the thing losing signal all the time. Even the national channels were cutting out.

I've had mine for a month and it's pretty good, live in Yorkshire and get a good reception on the bundled aerial. Worked fine sat in the drive but driving around Plymouth and a took a trip upto to Exeter along the A38 reception was very poor and in most cases non existent. We didn’t use the ‘basic’ self installation, but anyone with rudimentary hand eye coordination could follow the instructions and get it fitted to their motor. Overall, I’m delighted with the Highway 400. I felt pretty smug about the quality of my install – the fact that the wires are almost completely hidden behind the dashboard is a bonus. I also like the way they feed in from behind the ashtray and are therefore hidden away when the lid is closed. Highway comes fully equipped with service following capabilities, helping to reduce potential drop-outs and maintain consistent reception from one journey to the next. With the ability to automatically switch over to the strongest available transmission in any area, Highway provides a more reliable and seamless listening experience, without having to retune.Plugging everything in and testing with the supplied USB adapter the DAB radio came to life, appearing on the 207’s LCD display as playing via the CD changer. Perfect. As said, if you have a phone, especially with an ulimited'ish data contract I'd try streaming off that, wouldn't be as convenient though. Been thinking about switching to one of these as my Revo Dab has become more and more unreliable of late. I absolutely love Dab radio in the car as normal FM reception has always been poor for me. You can connect the Pure Highway 200 via an AUX in cable or transmitting the DAB radio via FM to your car stereo. That means it will work with older cars and even classics. It might not look like it does, but it also is a Bluetooth radio. It is great if your current audio system does not have Bluetooth yet, as you kill two birds with one stone.

Mine still works very well, but as I said above only really worth it if you travel a lot and mainly on the motorways. Would think buying one for jobbing around town or the occasional journey into the country would not be worth it. Has anyone done this? Or have any advice on whether it will work or not? The Autoleads splitter is 20 notes, so I'd prefer to have some idea of it possibly working first? Be very very careful with the update process - is not explained clearly and the controls are a little hit and miss.DAB radio offers access to hundreds of radio stations – more than on FM. And in some cases, you can even access stations that are not available on FM radio. While you’ve probably got one (or more) DAB radios in your home already, it may not be something you get to enjoy while you're driving.

If you’re planning on keeping your car long term, or have a ‘forever car’ the Highway 200 can be permanently fitted, it just requires a bit more ingenuity.I experimented with antenna positioning and FM tuning to no avail. Maybe the fact I drive a small van had somthing to do with it? Whether you’re new to digital radio or already enjoy the great choice and quality of digital radio at home you’ll love listening in your car with Highway. However, what if you have no intention of splashing out on a new car, but want to upgrade your existing audio system? If you’re after digital radio with the added benefit of Spotify music streaming, the Pure Highway 400 might be the answer.
