Thanks to every one for the input! By the way Jackie, who makes the Dualit? Sounds like you like it as the better DAB, if not the FM performance... 


All the best,

No Barry you haven't, it is. Actually, in fairness, the FM side of it is also pretty good as I tend to find that most combined radios make DAB the better portion and just shove FM in for a cash-in. For example, I don't rate the FM section on the Dualit, and think this part is really quite good on the Move.

I thought that the Move waws supposed to be FM as well as DAB - have I been misled?

Hi Graham
Firstly, I get inconsistencies on the train with DAB altogether, not just the Move. When I've gone to Aberdeen with it, which is my normal route these days, I could chuck it out the window. I can't seem to get much, and my presets don't really help because the radio just isn't that good anyway on the move, if you'll pardon the pun. I always take it out with me though, and I find walking about with Five Live on in my handbag if I'm listening to the footie is fine. It's just on trains I have a problem with it more, and DAB generally. My favourite use for it is in the bathroom where I can pull out its handy little stand and perch it on the window-sill.
Similarly, when we went to Fort William, it was useless as well, and I couldn't even get a signal in the hotel or outside it. So I took an analogue as a precaution, and of course that wasn't too bad in parts.
I do find the controls a bit sluggish sometimes, and it infuriates Ian more than me because he was always an analogue man, and doesn't like DAB as much as I do. But I know how to press the jog and wait a fraction of a second before I do anything else, and find that works a treat.
I don't access the menu facility whatsoever. When I bought the radio in January this year, I got the staff in Argos to tell me what each button did so that I could bring it home and get it up and running. Then I had to work out how to preset it, and once I'd figured it, I had no problems from then on in. 

Hope that helps.

Jackie

Hi Jackie. Do you ever use your Pure move while on a long journey? I do quite like doing this but obviously some local stations become unavailable. I have tried using info from the print instructions to get to trim stations in the menu but I have sometimes found this inconsistant. Do you use the 
menus for things and do you find a delay after pressing controls?

Regards

Graham

Hi Jackie - as ever, you are a treasure! I'll wait until the post fairy 
delivers it and take it from there - you may regret offering to help,
grins!!

All the best,

 No, but if there's anything you'd like help with, I'll do my best.

   Hi, I've just ordered one of these and wondered if anyone knows of a
source for instructions in an accessible format?

   All the best,
