Poor reception Aldringham today.
BBC Radio 4 is replaced by Channel 4 after a few minutes on freeview.
BBC Radio 3 is also being replaced by something else.

You may have noticed the post before yours where there is Planned Engineering, the BBC had also reported a fault on the 3rd July. Do not retune whilst such work is taking place as it may just delete your correct tuning.
