Visited my son in Sheffield a couple of weeks ago. Weak but useable signal on the M1 near Rotherham. Nothing in Sheffield though - too much interference,

: A couple of questions for the tx techies,
: please...
:
: I spent last week, within about 6 miles, as
: the crow flies, of the Orfordness tx and
: noticed that the signal seemed the same as
: 30 miles away, during the day. I was
: expecting to hear Caroline louder and maybe
: a bit distorted. Does this indicate that the
: tx is working particularly well?
:
: In the car, today, about 30 miles from the
: tx, I was listening to Led Zeppelin on 648
: and thought the sound was a bit lightweight.
: I turned the volume right up and the quality
: was the best I have heard on AM for years.
: Is this sound difference down to the
: characteristics of the tx or the car radio?
: It's a Ford factory fitted Sony AM/FM/DAB/CD
: radio.
