Title: DAB Radio fault Post by: THE FLASH on Thursday, December 23, 2010, 17:11:56 18 months ago i splashed out on a Roberts Gemini 59 DAB Radio.
Now the bloody sound has stopped (still working). Checked out the net and it seems a design fault with the power system. Do you reckon Roberts should repair for free??? Answers on a virtual postcard please. Abuse welcome!!!

might get you nowhere but you never know. Title: Re: DAB Radio fault Post by: Samdy Gray on Thursday, December 23, 2010, 17:27:40 Yes. But as you're a cunt, they'll probably say no to you ;)

That sounds a bit unlucky mind, I've had my Roberts DAB for 5-6 years now with no problem. Title: Re: DAB Radio fault Post by: land_of_bo on Thursday, December 23, 2010, 17:40:16 Does it work if you plug some headphones/external speakers in?

I assume you say this: http://www.howtomendit.com/answers.php?id=281911 Does it work when powered on batteries?

I hae it wired that way into the kitchen......its muffled.
