Default DAB BBC dropout

Its been happening increasingly with BBC radio Surrey in recent weeks. Most
of the time its a tiny glitch but at others lasts several seconds with a
kind of screech just as it goes.
Is this the same as you get?
It sounds to me like a digital link issue to me. This might be why they say
the transmitters are fine. Of course nobody actually listens to it and even
if they do, they probably would not know where to start looking for the
issue.

Hi,
Yesterday started to get complete dropouts every few minutes on BBC 3 and
4 DAB. Dropouts last a few seconds and sound then returns as normal.
Happens with 3 different radios in different places in the house. Does not
happen with Capital Radio. Does not happen with FM or internet.

We live in Dorset (BH20 5BB) and BBC say no faults with transmitters.

Suggestions?

Thanks,

Gordon
