Can anyone confirm if the reception is particularly patchy around here? Took my new Range Rover back to the dealers last week to have the radio and antenna in the back checked out. They say there's nothing wrong but I'm not so sure, anyone else having problems as they drive round West Berkshire? I've checked the website to see if any transmitters are down but nothings showing. Anyone?

I can't say I've noticed any problems with reception. There is sometimes a glitch when I go through a particular area which I've assumed is some kind of transition between transmitters as it's always at the same place, but I very rarely get drop-outs.

Right an injustice - give Simon Kirby his allotment back!

Last weekend I was the other side of hungerford and it was appalling, I'm used to the odd dead spot (near the memorial / job centre) is a good one but I've never had it as bad as that. Took the car straight back in but, "sorry sir, they all do that". Grrr! And it took them four days ! Double Grrr!

My A6 has dab and is a tad patchy in places, however if you look on the Audi forums you find other people have reported similar problems. Causes have included water ingress at the sharkfin, faulty heated rear screen and also not loving rear facing traffic cams.
