ΒιΆΉΤΌΕΔ Radio Leeds on DAB now has the option to offer commentary for two matches at the same time. FM also allows for a further split. This means that we can provide coverage for when Huddersfield Town, Bradford City, and Leeds United are all playing at the same time. This FAQ details the various ways of listening when more than one team is playing concurrently.
These are the various ways of listening to football commentary:
- FM
- Freeview (Channel 719)
- DAB 11B
- DAB 12D
11B and 12D are different DAB frequencies (similar to how a radio station on FM can be on more than one frequency). 11B has greater coverage around Bradford City while 12D has better coverage in other locations. Some DAB sets will display this when you tune into the station, with others you may need to go into settings/info to discover.
Depending on where you are, you might be able to pick up both or just one version on either 11B or 12D. If you can pick up both, you will have two ΒιΆΉΤΌΕΔ Radio Leeds displayed in the station list on your DAB receiver.

Hereβs how to listen to coverage in the various scenarios where more than one team is playing at the same time:
If all three teams play:
- Leeds United - FM
- Huddersfield Town - 12D and Freeview 719
- Bradford City - 11B
When Leeds and Huddersfield play:
- Leeds United - FM
- Huddersfield Town - 11B + 12D + Freeview 719
When Leeds and Bradford play:

- Bradford City - 11B + 12D + Freeview 719
When Huddersfield and Bradford play:

If you're not able to receive the 12D signal on DAB and want to listen to Huddersfield Town (when either Bradford City or Leeds United are also playing), your best option is to listen on Freeview.
