What did you think about Regatta Radio at HRR 2007?

For those who heard Regatta Radio at Henley Royal Regatta during 2007, its second year of broadcasting, this is your chance to give the team some idea of what you thought.

This is an independent questionnaire - I am not formally employed by Regatta Radio, and acted as their rowing pundit again for the second time, while the newspaper I write for continued to sponsor them. I'm putting this up because it's easier for me to do than for them to change their website, and I will be passing the overall results on to them. Do feel free to write whatever you like - all feedback is helpful. RQ.

The text-entry boxes for your more detailed comments will turn into scrolling fields if you want to write more than there appears to be space for, so just keep typing.

1. Where were you listening (country, city, club)? :

2. How much did you listen to Regatta Radio?

3. How did you listen?

4. Were you staying within the broadcasting coverage area (approx. 6 miles radius round Henley)?

5. What were you doing at the regatta or in Henley (tick any which apply)?
(Tick 'spectating' if you were elsewhere and following it via the radio/net)
Competing Spectating Coaching Working Socialising Hosting a crew Press Contributing to Regatta Radio
Being a Steward (please note just for real Stewards, one of the 50-odd who run the regatta, NOT just members of the Stewards' Enclosure....)

6. Anything else about your role at the regatta you'd like to add, eg where you were working, who you were competing/coaching for, where you spent your time?

7. Can you give some detailed feedback, on all/any of the following - broadcast clarity, streaming, website, results service, quality/balance of music played, standard of DJ-ing, adverts, standard of commentary, format of commentary, quantity/quality of rowing news, traffic news, weather news, feature interviews, times of broadcasting, and anything else you can think of. Comparisons to last year would also be helpful.

8. Was there enough interaction with listeners? Eg phone-ins, messages to the studio, competitions, talking to competitors who dropped in, etc? Or was there too much?

9. Anything you'd like to pick out as particularly good or bad? (please say which - it isn't always obvious!)

10. Please rate Regatta Radio out of 10 (0 = dreadful, 10 = brilliant)

11. Should Regatta Radio happen again next year (HRR 2008)?
