I believe they got granted the license 2 years ago at the same time East Leeds got granted theirs.

It took them 2 years to get their signal up? Huh. Good luck to them anyway, we need a dance station near here, Bauer own Liverpool pretty much.

Got it over here in Sheffield at Norfolk Park! A little bit hissy but when I'm connected to the outdoor aerial it'll be clear as a bell with a tuned antenna.

Re: LDC testing on 97.8 in Leeds
It doesn't have the same penetration as Fever fm, the sound quality on that sounds very good, I don't think it helps the reception every time you get a dip it goes low, you definitely don't want something set up that sounds like capital, you want your audio set up nice on a low power transmitter to sound nicer than other stations, they don't seem to of done that. To me anyway I think LDC is a disappointment, very random all over the place musically, likely to play hours of funk, a odd song from Dream fm, doesn't have anything excitement to it, I kind of just hear a few people talking to their mates on instagram which I don't like.

100 watts through a Lindenblad dual polarised antenna.
The station has gradually become shitter by the week, playing mostly commercial sounding music and trying to pretend to be Galaxy Radio.
Most of the ex Frequency FM djs have either left or been dropped off the schedule in favour of more advertiser friendly cheesy commercial radio DJ types.
They are charging £75 a month subs and nobody except desperate Dan wannabe BBC Radio 2 types are willing to pay that in their narcissistic hunt for fame.
The station has become a laughing stock to the real dance music djs in Leeds of which there's a lot but nobody is interested in going on there because apparently there's very little listeners or interaction.
The station has died a death and is in debt to the tune of £150,000.
They've sold half of the station to Danny Malin from Rate My Takeaway YouTube channel so that should tell you where they are heading and what kind of audience they're desperately trying to attract in a lst ditch attempt to stop it being an absolute failure.
If Frequency FM got the licence then it would be a different station altogether.
