Just tuned in to BBC Radio Oxford internet stream - it's as bad as it gets and in mono.

I've been dipping into the preceding sports programme on iPlayer this afternoon and the distortion has been awful. Is Radio Oxford using limiters (is that the right term) and not caring about input levels ? That's how it sounds to me, and if the quality doesn't improve for the Cropredy broadcast PDQ I shall be listening to something else.

Sounds good to me.

Bonzo, live PAs are in mono. Duh!

sorry Ed, it's not the fact that it's mono - BBC Local radio has been mono for years and years - it's that Radio Oxford on iPlayer sounds clipped and distorted. I'd be interested to know how you are listening - iPlayer or FM ?

No, the broadcast feed from the sound mixer would be in stereo.

Sunday Morning and I've just started to listen to the Radio Oxford Cropredy broadcast on Listen Again
http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio/player/p00wlqmy The sound is much much clearer. Quite listenable.
