Default Air pressure and radio, was BBC DAB Tx problem ?

I've tried calling BBC Reception Advice, but they say they don't know
of any transmitter problems.


So because they do not know they are going to do nothing, even though they
know now from you!
Is that the case?

Oh yeah, now I remember, they also said it might be due to 'low air
pressure', when I phoned before it was normal at approx. 1000
millibars, but still a weak signal, over the weekend it did get down to
980 mb. I thought DAB was immune to propagation variations due to the
use of 'Single Frequency Networks', and anyway it's *high* pressure
that causes problems due to refraction?
