Does anyone listen to this regularly off the CP transmitter? I've

It's often on the sort of thing you'd not expect distortion on - like
the shipping forecast on at the moment. I've tried swapping to DAB or
FM but as I say it doesn't last for long - usually not long enough to
swap during it.


Yup, I've heard it, but as you say it isn't for long. Unfortunately my
Freeview receiver isn't conveniently sited to capture it on my PC, so I
haven't been able to sort out what it is.


Great. So it's obviously 'their' end. Wonder if it's just the CP
transmitter? Definitely sounds like analogue distortion so perhaps not the
feed?
