Anyone remember when it was said the reason why cursive writing wasn’t being taught anymore was because The Constitution and The Bill of Rights were both written in cursive and the left didn’t want people to be able to read them anymore?
The same with AM radio? Many Conservative voices are on AM radio and is this the left trying to erase Conservatives here???
AM signals reach far and at night cover huge areas, though some stations have to power down or change direction to protect others.
There is news-talk on FM including powerful NPR stations like WBUR and WGBH in Boston. Some conservative talk stations are FM only while some simulcast an AM talker.
Some stations will simulcast on FM with a full powered signal while some have FM translators with limited range.
Some simulcast on HD2 or HD3 signals for those with special HD radio.
Other options:
—streaming—iHeartRadio, TuneIn etc
—some news-talk content on satellite radio (for fee)
The AM dial has strong and weak stations
with talk, news, religion, foreign language and sports. You could have a big sports station on FM while an AM would have sports gambling talk. Some nostalgia/oldies.
In Boston area there’s easy listening WJIB AM 740, a one man operation with a cult following. Listener supported with donations. He refuses to streamcast for cost reasons but covers some areas with an FM translator (101.3)
