Freeview sound is no good if you want to listen to Classic FM - its in
mono only at low bit rate.


It's in stereo here.


It may vary at different times of day, but now (12:30 on Sunday) from
Bilsdale it's 128 kbps in stereo with a sample rate of 48 kHz -
according to VLC's "Current Media Information | Codec" from a test
recording made using Windows Media Centre.


Interesting, back in February when Classic FM and LBC joined DTT, they
were both 64k Mono.

Something must have moved off COM 5 since then to allow Classic FM up
the food chain ?

What rate/mode is LBC at present ?
