Hello all. I am looking for a network-compatible DAB+ receiver. Either via LAN or WLAN. Without its own amplifier, without loudspeakers. An Apple HomePod 2 is connected to the WLAN as a loudspeaker. I know, internet radio via the iPad or something would also work - but I don't necessarily want to burden the internet with another data stream (the reception (4G/5G) is already bad enough). The descriptions of such devices always say that I can stream music to this "radio" from any source. That's wonderful. But I need it in the other direction: the received DAB signal is to be streamed to the HomePod. Is that possible? Has anyone had any experience in this regard? Any tips on which DAB receiver would be ideal? Thank you very much.

Basically, the radios are only equipped with receivers and cannot transmit. There may be a few that can also transmit.
Regarding the HomePod, it has the following audio sources:
- Apple Music
- iTunes music purchases
- iCloud music library with an Apple Music or iTunes Match subscription
- Third-party music services6
- Apple Music Radio or episodes on-demand
- Apple Podcasts
- Latest news
- Enhanced room sounds
- Stream other content via AirPlay to HomePod from iPhone, iPad, Apple TV and Mac

Therefore, it will most likely not be possible for a radio to stream to the HomePod. Since Apple itself only specifies iPhone, iPad, Apple TV and Mac for Airplay.
