Review: Happy with this - Easy to use - bought this for the XTrons IA head unit I purchased for my daughters Fiat 500. Purchased this one specifically as it has a screw in SMA female connector Also purchased a Bingfu Fakra male Z to SMA male connector which perfectly connected the the built in roof aerial. The reception is great - using it with DAB-Z app and it picks up stations which my new BMW does not. My only regret is the Fakra to SMA male lead wasn’t much longer, as I would have run the USB unit down to the footwell or into the glove box so I could disconnect and use the USB connector in case of issues. So far though it’s worked without needing to be disconnected. Reasonable price (comes with windscreen antenna which I didn’t want to have to use. Station sound quality is great - better than the Fiat factory unit (which is due to the Xtrons unit as well.

The USB dongle is not screened which is a problem, but the TA709IPL emits a lot of interference at DAB frequencies. I had to wrap the DAB dongle in copper tape, put it in the boot (log USB cable) and wrap copper tape round the head unit body to get rid of the interference. Google xda-developers and DAB-Z to find my posts. **Q: I have a ford focus which has a heated front windscreen. would this effect the quality of the dab signal, if so where else could this be mounted?** A: It might cause some signal loss. You can buy adaptors which allow you to use the car FM antenna or even better use an external mag mount antenna. **Q: How long is the cable and can i fit the rear window instead of on the front windscreen on my vw scirocco. cable length would have been helpful to list** A: The antenna cable is not long enough to fit to the rear window. You could use a USB extension cable, that is what I dis and put the stick in the boot, to get it further away from the noisy radio screen. **Q: Where is the USB port on unit** A: The USB socket for this DAB dongle should be in the wiring loom that attaches to the back of the Xtrons head unit. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Happy with this *by A***R on 10 January 2026* Easy to use - bought this for the XTrons IA head unit I purchased for my daughters Fiat 500.

Now after 6 months one stick has failed completely. Xtrons say it only has a 3 month warranty and won't replace or repair it. I am trying to get Amazon to do something about it, but they don't seem to want to know either. The tech support from Xtrons is poor, anytime you have a problem with DAB they just send you the article about installing the [rubbish] antenna. Yes, it is rubbish and has been replaced. So for poor tech support and a product that fails after 6 months, zero stars Xtrons. Avoid this product and avoid the TA709IPL head unit, it puts out so much noise in the DAB band it makes DAB useless. ## Frequently Bought Together - XTRONS DAB + USB 2.0 Digital DAB + Radio Tuner Receiver Stick ONLY for XTRONS Android Car Stereos - XTRONS Bluetooth OBD2 II Android Car Auto Diagnostic Scanner Tool Torque Special for The XTRONS Android Car Stereos --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/159135040-dab-usb-2-0-digital-dab-radio-tuner-receiver-stick](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/159135040-dab-usb-2-0-digital-dab-radio-tuner-receiver-stick) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-04-24*
