Digital radio is radio with digital quality sound, uninterrupted relay, and much better reception. There are many advantages of digital radio when compared to other kind of transmission. Some features or advantages are mentioned below.

* Digital radio works on a platform called digital audio broadcasting (DAB). This not only carries music and sound, but also has the ability to carry text, pictures, and other kinds of dada in its bandwidth. This enables the broadcasting of messages, advertisements, lyrics, sports scores, results of competitions, among others, along with the radio programs.

* Another point which can be added to the advantages of digital radio is that it can be transmitted via satellite as well as terrestrial networks. This makes it available both nationally as well as internationally.

* Digital radio completely eliminated interference. Therefore, the radio station will not become distorted or disrupted while listening to it. When a person is traveling on the road, he will get uninterrupted relay of the station.

* Static is completely avoided in a digital radio. There are no crackles, overlapping, or hissing when it comes to sound in digital radio. The high quality sound it provides is one of its biggest advantages.

* It is extremely easy to use when compared to normal radio. As digital radio does not need any frequency search, it is easy to identify and change the channels from one station to another. The names of the stations are displayed in text and all the user has to do is to select the one he needs without having to search for the frequency. This also has the additional advantage of not having to retune the station when a person is traveling.

* There are digital radio stations that allow users to pause the broadcast, record it, and even rewind and replay it. This means it works more or less like a tape recorder and allows users to catch up on their program at a later time.

* For a radio broadcasting firm too, the digital technology gives certain benefits. The company is able to provide a wide range of services and programs under the same bandwidth. Due to this, more and more people are coming out with digital stations. So the choices available to the customers also increase. There are radio stations available of famous broadcasting companies as well as standalone ones which provide local entertainment, news, and weather.

* Finally, among the advantages of digital radio is the fact that there are many radio operators that provide free service. Therefore, people who possess such a radio can use the free services available if they do not want to subscribe to any one by paying money.

Digital radio is the new wave in radio transmission and enjoyment. It not only lets a person enjoy the old stations in digital quality, but also has a whole load of others to select from. The advantages of digital radio leave no doubt regarding its usefulness, quality, and reach. Soon the entire radio networks will go digital.
