Its operating concept, the simple design and the crystal clear reception contributed significantly to the popularity of the original Bremen car radio. So we have taken over the styling of the original model in the new edition, but at the same time added a modern Variocolour illumination for the buttons and the display. Thanks to Blaupunkt Codem FM RDS tuner and DAB + digital tuner, the first-class reception remains one of the strengths of the new Youngtimer Car radio. New are the numerous serial interfaces, including two USB ports, an aux port and an SDHC slot - even audio streaming via Bluetooth is not a future piece for the returning legend. The radio carries the „Made for iPhone / iPod“ and ensures appropriate compatibility. All settings are permanently saved even when disconnected from the battery. An active DAB + screen antenna is also included. Its operating concept, the simple design and the crystal clear reception contributed significantly to the popularity of the original Bremen car radio.

I did not install the DAB antenna as the US does not use the DAB protocol, so there's no point. For Europe residents, the manual suggested the DAB antenna be installed on the windshield along the A-pillar. It just attaches with adhesive to the windshield, which could be a problem if you ever need to replace your windshield after the install. Over the years, some models have become true cult objects. This also applies to the legendary Blaupunkt “Bremen SQR 46” from 1986. We are now presenting the reinterpretation of the popular 1-DIN car radio and combining the USPs of the 80s model with new technologies and functions. The result is the Blaupunkt “Bremen SQR 46 DAB”. Sounds better than the Alpine I pulled out. I'm still running factory-sized speakers and no sub, so it sounds pretty poor overall, but for a factory-look stereo, I'm happy. AM/FM Tuner: The built-in AM/FM tuner provides manual, seek, scan, and preset tuning. The unit offers 3 FM banks and 1 AM bank; you can store up to 5 radio stations in each bank for a total of 20 radio presets. With Travelstore, you can automatically search for and store the 5 AM or FM stations offering the strongest reception in the current bank. Any previously stored stations in this memory bank are deleted in the process. The scan feature allows you to scan either every receivable station or every stored station of a current AM/FM band.

Note: The built-in DAB+ tuner and included DAB antenna are not used and not supported in the United States and North America. DAB+ is only supported in European countries. It was just released in October, and I ended up buying mine from these guys, since they speak English and would ship to the US. :) https://www.classiccarstereo.co.uk/c...sqr-46-dab-bt/ Single-Line LCD: The Blaupunkt Bremen SQR 46 DAB features a 9-digit, single-line front-panel display with a wide-viewing angle and adjustable brightness (1-16). There is also an illumination wire that can be connected to your vehicle's head-lamp circuit which allows the head unit's display and button illumination to dim and brighten when the vehicle's headlights are turned on and off.

Data carrier features

added: show A2DP streaming info TITLE/ARTIST/ALBUM (select via DIS), capability may depend on used phone/ mp3 player and production date (only models with bluetooth version B20191226 and higher are supported). Key features for us E30 owners are RDS radio (not HD as far as I can tell), DAB (European HD radio protocol, not useful for US users), Bluetooth calling and audio streaming, front-facing SDHC, USB, and 3.5mm inputs, and a rear-facing USB input. It also has 5 preamp outs, which I didn't use in this install since I'm keeping the factory four-speaker config. The HU was boxed with two wiring harness pigtails, external BT microphone, DAB antenna, handheld remote, and stereo removal tools: If the unit turns off immediately after confirming the update: Please be patient and wait for 5 minutes (watch the LED on your USB key, when it shuts off, the unit can be turned on again).

An included external microphone ensures your voice is heard loud and clear on the other end of your calls. Lots of inputs
