Question Kenwood DAB

Is it possible to use a Blaupunkt internal stick on DAB aerial with a Kenwood DAB unit, a caution notice with the DAB unit says "DC voltage is output from the DAB antenna terminal of the DAB hideaway unit to supply power to the DAB antenna" will it work and has anybody tried to do this?

Not sure about the Kenwood DAB units but I got the Pioneer hideaway DAB tuner.
Did initially try the JVC internal stick on aerial and then the Blaupunkt glass mount stick on external one. Both gave me crap reception

Ended it taking the plunge and getting this Pioneer body mount one



No problems ever since. IMHO body mount is best

if you mean one of these http://www.bluespot.co.uk/stock/dab_glass_int.asp . I used one with mine and it worked. Not as good as an external one like RobP but will do the job

Tim,
I know what you mean about the drill. That is exactly why I tried two others before going for the body mount one.

I was actually suprisingly easy to do once I took the plunge.

Noticed you are in SE London, if you need a hand give me a shout.

Rob
