Our FM Signal

A Quick Update

We just wanted to give you a heads up that our FM signal might be weaker than usual at the moment. Don’t worry – nothing’s seriously wrong and we haven’t forgotten to pay the electricity bill!

You might have noticed recently that Kennet Radio sounds absolutely brilliant – that’s because we’ve just upgraded our audio processing system. The difference is amazing – clearer voices, richer music, and all-round better quality sound. It’s like going from standard definition to 4K for your ears!

If you’re listening online through our app, our website or smart speakers, you’re already enjoying this fantastic new sound quality in all its glory. But we want to make sure everyone on FM gets the full benefit too, which is why our engineering team are currently working on our transmission setup.

Think of it as making sure our shiny new audio upgrade can properly reach everyone – there’s no point having amazing sound if our FM transmitter can’t deliver it to your radios at full strength!

We’re hoping to have everything sorted within the next week or so, and then we’ll be back to full power, bringing you that gorgeous new sound quality across our entire FM coverage area.

In the meantime, if you’re finding the FM signal is not quite reaching your radio like it usually does, this is actually the perfect time to try us online. Check out all the ways you can listen at our listening page – you’ll get that brilliant new sound quality crystal clear.

Huge thanks to Alastair and Mel from Smart Engineering Group and Nik Fox from Cotswold Group who are helping us get everything sorted.

Thanks for bearing with us whilst we get this essential engineering work done. We know it’s a nuisance, but getting our upgraded sound to everyone properly will definitely be worth it.

And as always – Keep it KR!

The Kennet Radio Team
