Tech issues plague 3AW this morning

Technical problems hamper Ross & John show. 


3AW listeners are reporting distortion and moments of silence on the Melbourne AM station this morning, with the Herald Sun reporting a fault disrupting the analog signal. 

Ross Stevenson and John Burns have suffered through a broken broadcast, with drop-outs and silence interrupting the program. The problem appears to have begun last night during Andrew Bolt’s program. 

One listener tweeted: ‘Digital was a mess last night couldn’t hear Bolt.’

“We are aware we have issues with our transmission this morning. We know it sounds horrible,” host Ross Stevenson said on air.

“We are working on fixing it. The reception is perfect via the app, online or digital radio.”

3AW operations director Stephen Beers said there was damage to the transmitter due to the storms over night and it was about to be repaired.
