Anyone with a new T6.1 having problems with dab signal. I think that around 20-25% of the time the dab drops out, I don’t have any 12v usb adaptors plugged in which I hear sometimes can interfere.
T6.1 poor dab reception

I thought they might be in the little box on the roof with the esim thing. Fm signal is fine.
Do you know if there are any speaker upgrades for the 6.1 (straight swaps) and sub that fits under the double seat (doesn’t seem much room under there)
The box on the roof is for GSM, SOS, VW connect
Fm has a aerial in each mirror, dab is drivers side only
not many speaker options unlike the T6, the T6 can take up to 8” door speakers, T6.1 only can take a 6.5”
We are offering Audison AP6 kit with tweeters and a compact digital amp, which is all plug and play
we been supplying twin seat enclosures since the early T5 days, passive so will need a external amp, they sound awesome, maybe consider our Signature package which includes this sub set up, hertz speakers, 3 channel JL Audio amp to drive the sub and hertz. JL Audio Bass control, etc

Do you happen to have a Dashcam fitted with a fixed supply from fusebox?. I had a cheap power supply that caused DAB to cut out. Changed to a Nextbase supply and all is good.
Yeah, I have the same. It drops out quite often and every few minutes, the voice on the radio (I listen to LBC mostly) goes muffled for a few seconds. I'm generally incredibly disappointed with the ICE in the T6.1 which is a shame for a van that is awesome in every other way.
No dashcam fitted, the only thing I have in is my iPhone connected to one of the usb c connections.

Mine was quite dodgy, but in the last few days it's got really, really bad. I get reception around 60-70% of the time, and yesterday reception was lost for several minutes (to the point that I forgot the radio was even on and jumped when it came back).
Added to my Android Auto woes and the radio in the T6.1 is generally a complete load of crap.
