The BBC radio networks are still compressed by Optimods. You wouldn't believe how much gain reduction is applied to Radio 1.

Noticed this really badly this morning on commute. Heard a tune I know on R1 over car radio, and barely recognised it, so much missing from the tune

Unfortunately they also compress the DAB networks too, despite it being technically unnecessary.
