It's not you. Occasionally there is some interference from 35W UHF transceiver that sits close to the streaming receiver in my rack.
Although I know where it's coming from, unfortunately I can't figure out what's actually causing the audio to do that. (and so I can't fix it)

Ok Folks,
After some suggestions I've installed a VHF band pass filter on the FESA radio.
Hopefully this will help the radio reject the interference from my UHF transmitter.
Please let me know if the muffled audio fault comes back.

When they say "turning out" is that under lights and sirens or is that different to fire call conditions.
