It occurred to me after reading the report a second time, that by the time a listener, tuned to his portable radio or in his car, both of which are not really ideal listening environments, that the recording would have been processed through the BBCs own transmission equipment, and although a small portion of the population would enjoy the direct transmission stream from the transmitting aerials on the roof, the majority would have been sent down transmission lines to transmitters in other parts of the country, competing with who knows what in adjacent cables


It would be impossible for this not to have an effect on the eventual signal


So why did they bother?


And, are our digital streams, from the likes of Tidal and Qobuz, any better?
