QuoteA major fire at a transmitter has left an estimated 1.3m radio listeners without an FM service.
The mast at Morborne, Peterborough, Cambs, caught fire on Saturday evening, collapsing onto transmitter buildings and neighbouring fields.

Radios 1,2, 3 and 4, BBC Radio Cambridgeshire, BBC digital radio and Classic FM are all affected.

The transmitter covers Cambs, and parts of Lincs, Northants, Leicestershire, Beds, Bucks and west Norfolk.

Mobile telephone reception has also been affected.

Scenes of crime experts and forensic teams are at the transmitter site, which is owned by Crown Castle International.

Hmm, can't say that I really noticed!  :blink:
I do exactly what the little voices tell me to.

PC Specs:- Black box with some fans that go whirrr, a few lights, things inside that get warm, headphones, keyboard (a clicky one), mouse (with buttons and no squeak), disks (2-off SSD and HDD) and a monitor of sufficient proportions.

I wondered why I could only get the local stations on the way home!

Now lets all retrace our steps and find out who wasn't in the game room at the time of the offence, it didn't say anything about some dodgy characters and some C4 did it. :unsure:

I was in the room..... honest. :whistle:
