Hello, aphra - and welcome!Originally posted by aphra View Post
Can't help with that myself but will leave the techies to suggest something. I've had a couple of reports lately that people have found the volume of R3 quieter than the other stations.It isn't given us to know those rare moments when people are wide open and the lightest touch can wither or heal. A moment too late and we can never reach them any more in this world. -
aphra: I experienced a gradual deterioration in R3 reception down here in the SW, but only on car radio. Changing the radio, and the car, completely solved the problemOriginally posted by aphra View Post
From which we may deduce that electrical components can deteriorate over time. My car and its radio were about 17 years old. How old is your Denon??
Do you have other FM radios in the house, and if so are they showing the same problems? It may be helpful if you tell us whereabouts you live so we can see if others in your area report changes, though gradual deterioration is unlikely to be a transmitter problem. The BBC website will tell you if there are any issues with your transmitter (like being reduced power pending repairs), but this would be a instant change I'd have thought.I keep hitting the Escape key, but I'm still here!Comment
