I fitted a DAB/FM head unit to my MGF recently and didn't want to fit a windscreen aerial, so I bought this widget in eBay. It works a treat! eBay - The UK's Online Marketplace

Just bought a 2009 Freelander 2 TD4 HSE after a succession of petrol Range Rovers, which I loved. So far no regrets. :D

You're probably right to consider a stand-alone portable unit. However, you could always update your entire entertainment system with a double DIN touchsceen unit, which would incorporate Radio, DVD, CD, SD Card, Digital TV, Rear Camera, Aux Video, MP3 and Satnav. I did this with my 2002...

Steering wheel controls???

Any competent auto electrician should be able to connect an ammeter up to your vehicle and systematically pull each fuse to determine the source of any significant drain. The ones you have spoken to have obviously got too many customers or too much money. (I suspect both).

DAB radio propogation is not suited to mobile applications, where the receiver is moving towards or away from the transmitter at speed.

Sounds like a linkage problem.
