Have an additional powered aerial on the rear side window and doesn't cut out at all.

I just use TuneIn on my iPhone connected via Bluetooth, can obviously get all digital channels on there.

I use an external aerial and they are much better than the crap window ones. Look at the ones that use your steering wheel controsl to control.

comes standard with my Swift Sport

use it over FM.
as the name suggests its digital. if it had signal it is crystal clear, no signal it cuts out. doesn't cut out much around by me....

i have since discovered "Absolute Radio" - it still comes with adverts but far better than local radio and some of the hosts are known names (Frank Skinner and Jason Manford to name two)
