Can't say I've noticed any degradation of signals, but I do live quite close, about 8 miles as the crow flies and do a lot of my listening at work on the airfield :D

i'm probably about 20 miles away..the signal use to be quite strong so unless they've turned down the power i can't see what's happening.
i can pick up Doncaster and Leicester much stronger these days..even Heathrow and Stanstead..nothing's changed here antenna wise or radio??

Good Luck with that I hope you get lots more contacts on it. the sign of line can be a funny thing. you may be only 2 mailes from EAM and not get it. but 30 from Robinhood and hear it all.
