Default TalkSport echoes.

Some people complain here about sibilance on radio-4 longwave, but why has nobody mentioned the horrible echoes on TalkSport 693/909KHz?

I live where the coverage-areas of two transmitters overlap. The problem is not carrier-desynchronisation-fading between transmitters (I know what that sounds like from my days with wide-area-coverage AM VHF police/fire/civil-defence rnetworks atound 100MHz) - rather it sounds much more like one transmitter's audio feed has a delay of 100 milliseconds or more compared with the other.

The echo makes TalkSport all-but-unlistenable-to. What's the best path through which to report this?
