Has Graham Norton got a sore throat ?
 

Just tuned into Virgin DAB to listen to Graham Norton and
noticed an immediate change in his voice, almost as if he
has a sore throat.

Then I pressed INFO on my Denon DM41 and I see that he is
being broadcast on MP2 80K *mono*. Very noticible change
from FM radio 2.

Is he broadcasting from a broom-cupboard at home, instead of a proper
studio?

His broom cupboard is probably more palatial than my living room, though.

His voice was as normal as it ever is in last night's BBC1 show. It used
to be recorded a couple of days before TX.

Ours that does that due to the virus puts a towel over
his head at home and sounds the same as usual.

Yes the grittyness of some mono stuff is awful, try listening to some of the
freeview feeds of stations.

80K Mono is fine for speech/discussion, but the distortion
with 'music' is too obvious compared to FM R2. I wonder why
they bother with DAB at all and don't just go 100% online ?.

I do, but I didn't think Virgin was on Freeview ?
