However, both FM and O2's data network (which is far from perfect) have to contend with the same conditions and deliver a good signal on over 90% of the journey.
Agreed. I use a small dab radio..either it is good..or there is nothing, no in between. With fm, even when it gets weak, you can hear something.

the number of times I've listened on dab, and got a good bit, then signal dies and I'm left wondering.

Enjoy talksport when I can hear it
