DAB Reception

I tried this one on my local [livejournal.com profile] edinburger community, but to no avail as yet, so I thought I would throw it open to the wisdom of my f-list...

I have a DAB hifi radio, and over the past three or four weeks I have noticed that the reception has steadily deteriorated - there are now so many cracks and gurgles that it is almost unlistenable to.

At first I thought it might be the weather, but it has not gone away.

I have an interior aerial - which was fine until October. The signal strength is fine: according to the unit's instructions, I should be getting really good, clear reception (the minimum for a clear sound is 5/16; my signal is 15/16) - but it is still gurgling. It is a mains-powered unit. Aaagh!

Any ideas or suggestions welcome. (Please don't tell me to get an external aerial, though! Or to move flats...)
