Yes @magpiejue.

Digital Audio Broadcasting i.e DAB.  

I'm very disappointed in the decision by BBC Radio Nottingham, I don't support them on their biased coverage but I can live with it.

I brought one of these from John Lewis last season - https://www.johnlewis.com/roberts-sports-dab-5-personal-stereo-radio/p1371118?sku=233314347&

But there are cheaper DAB radios such as this one.

People are forgetting why many Notts fans refer to it as 'radio red'. They have no done themselves any favours here.

I will have to buy a portable DAB radio then.

I'm not that bothered, but it would be disappointing if the decision is because of the poor service of DAB radio.

I would have thought it would be better myself.

I don't listen to the radio much enough to justify  buying a DAB Radio, does the Magpie Player still provide audio?

The radio service will soon fold sooner or later, there's just nothing special about it these days and unless BBC Radio Nottingham goes fully digital - I just can't see how they will manage.

When they see the response from fans, perhaps they will reconsider? It seems a bit of a bizarre decisions to broadcast Forest games on two frequencies when there's two teams. @super_ram what does Derby do for Burton and other clubs in your area?

Broadcast both on different frequencies but not Chesterfield.

I would hate to lose the coverage if I was still living in Nottingham.

The BBC should look into improving their infrastructure before they lose more appeal due to this. I'm not sure I would buy the whole 'we need both for Forest due to the North side not be able to tune in'. Better still, why don't they just cover home games and be fair to be clubs? 

Think this is the thin end of the wedge, they tried a few years ago to dump Notts, and I feel at the end of this season or next they will announce audience figures for DAB not high enough to consider extending the commentary and set it aside for usual programme. Feel best option would be for away games to be broadcast on FM station and home games on digital, this way I feel it may increase the home attendances maybe not by thousands but any extra bums on seats is always a bonus.

Very poor decision because it's not like the radio is the most hip thing to listen too.

The BBC should do better for local coverage, all the money they make.

Ive got dab radio, but according to the hubby, could only got F word on our one in the kitchen. So don't know what i'll do on tuesday night. COYP

BBC Radio Nottingham start at Forest and have updates, it may have been that.

The same old mistakes by them though forgetting we are a two club city.

I'll know better on tuesday night. Today i was at my mums listening there.

F word commentary wasn’t on digital @magpiejue perhaps hubby was listening to the build up or if it’s a FM/DAB radio he hadn’t got it switched to DAB. I listened to Notts and it was fine apart from the result.
