David Hitchin: Like yourself here in Seaford since Friday (16.09.16) all our DAB radio (2 Pure radios and " Bose) we have been unable to recieved Classic FM which frequently goes astray - I do not understand the techinal jargon and can't find that there are any faults showing on the aerial. I have tried retuning at various times but to no avail. Has anyone any idea what is happening here and when we will get full digital coverage?

Richard Cooper:

Many thanks for the information, sorry for the delay in responding.

I am trying to listen on FM but the quality here is Seaford is so poor, so I am carrying my laptop around the house to hear my favourite station clearly. It is interesting re the engineering works on the Newhaven transmitter, I couldn't find that info out which is why I was thrilled to find this site. When situations like this occur at Newhaven it does seem to take an age to recitfy, so patience is the only way to go. Hopefully it will soon be back transmitting.

Seafordrose:

Just an update to say that between Tea Time and Bed Time yesterday (21-09-2016) Classic FM returned on my 4 DAB radios so back to normal but the FM reception is very poor still. I wonder why modern technology is not a patch on the technology I grew up with i.e. LW. MW and FM and TV station reception which was constant and not dependant on the weather, etc. Am I just getting old, I think so being a child of the late 40's.
