Fiat Ducato DAB radio signal problems .

[Just us on Tour]

Hello All
Can anyone advise me please . I understand the DAB Ariel on a series 7 Fiat Ducato is in the drivers door mirror .
Has anyone had issues with poor DAB radio signals . One minute mine works fine and then the next it goes off or sounds like Micky Mouse . My stereo unit is an Xzent ( which I know are not the best ) so wondering if it’s the radio or the Ariel ?. I am just about to upgrade the Xzent to the Kenwood Motorhome specific with a floating screen . I am just wondering should I replace the Ariel or is it the Azent which is the issue . Any advice appreciated .

Hi Guys
Just an update … I have had a Kenwood DNR 992 RVS head unit fitted. I have also had a screen mounted DAB Ariel fitted . No signal issues at all now and the Kenwood unit is so much better than the Xzent.

How are you finding the Kenwood radio, I've a pioneer and its poor and was thinking about swapping it for the Kenwood you've fitted?

My 6 month old Ducato van has real good DAB reception. Have mirror covers on too, original DAB aerial and Alpine Halo 11 unit.
