Yes, its been on and off for a while now. Obviously they do not roll off
stuff. I noted some weeks ago they played an old transcription of an old
interview and you could plainly hear the gram motor growling around at the
bottom end. I also noted a similar kind of deep drone on World / Service on
DAB the other day, as if there was some motor bolted to the same bit of wood
the microphone was on,

I've noticed rather high levels of rumble on BBC Radio 4 recently.
e.g. Saturday's 'Today' http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b04kzz5p
at about 1:53 and 1:57 onwards.
What's going on? Don't they roll off the bass on speech?
It was painful through decent speakers....
