The clues...
Requests for help should normally include the clue itself, the number of letters in the answer, and details of any you already have. Any additional information or special instructions, common in Listener puzzles, should also be included.
Hints only, please, no answers.

The theme...
Help with the theme may be sought here too. The help given should be fairly gentle in nature - just a nudge, a pointer in the right direction (and certainly not anything that would spoil the puzzle for others). Any posts which, even inadvertently, give away too much of the theme are likely to be removed.
If you do feel a post is too revealing, please feel safe to say so! Norah, the site administrator, tends to err on the side of caution. Anything thought to be iffy is likely to be removed.

The Listener is a unique puzzle and should be treated with respect.

Fairly straight forward, but nicely done. Annoyingly can't see the 6 cell name at first glance, but hopefully inspiration will strike.

Have now spotted it. 'roughly' doing some heavy lifting it turns out.

Yes, SH, much gentler this week. Still, it was nicely constructed. And I enjoyed being reminded of the theme.

I was helped by having done another puzzle recently with the same theme. Not surprising that it would appeal to two different setters, and an interesting one to revisit.

All done, but I have a worry that there is an ambiguity regarding what must be entered below the grid. I have assumed the experimental trip isn't what is intended.

It seems unambiguous to me.

Thanks to Agricola for an easier ride this week. Having looked at the wiki entry, I agree that “roughly” is doing a fair wheen of work.

All done apart from being unable to parse 33 down. My Chambers app. provides only one candidate for the answer and I am quite happy with that, but for the sake of completeness I would like to know how it works. Hint appreciated.
