Radio reception around the country
Hi, I generally listen to the radio in the van on my travels; SW Scotland, West Coast, N.Wales etc
I lose the signal for R4 quite a lot and seem to be constantly having to fiddle with tuning all the time.
Does this happen to anyone else??

Words of wisdom: Internally rust proof the sills and subframe! both skins!!. There's always user serviceable parts inside. "Oh that shouldn't have happened".

Re: Radio reception around the country
I think in the areas Ricko mentions It's to do with signal rather that reception.
There's nothing worse than getting half way through a good play and loosing reception. I have been known to backtrack and park up.
I avoid it now by using internet radio on my phone through a front input on my radio. There seem to be far more gaps in radio coverage than there are for phone signals.
