Best Answer

The first FM radio station started broadcasting in the USA in 1937 although the frequencies we use today were not used until after the World War II. The popularity of FM broadcasting only became widespread in the 1970s, so many radios dating from before this period will probably not have the FM band. The only way to be sure is to check the dial or band switch.

Yes you can, but you don't get to see what is going on. In the 40s/ 50s the radio stations used to air stories like soaps or tv shows.

How can you get a FM radio Station in the UK?

FM broadcasts need an FM radio receiver. Either a fixed receiver in a stereo system or a portable radio will do the job. FM has a limited range, typically 40 to 50 miles from the transmitter is close to the limit of reception. A selection of stations also broadcast on digital radio, DAB. A DAB radio will be needed to receive digital radio. Many FM stations are also available on cable television services, Freeview (terrestrial television service), Sky satellite service and Freesat, the free satellite television and radio platform. Any radio service on these platforms is no longer an FM broadcast despite the fact that they carry the same content. Additionally, an increasing number of stations are broadcasting on the Internet. The station's website will often have a link for live broadcasts of their stations.

Why would your radio work on the AM stations and not on the FM on a 99 grand Cherokee jeep?

Am signal but no FM signalAM and FM signals use different antennas to receive the frequencies they use. If you are receiving an AM signal (if you can tune in to an AM radio station), but you can't receive an FM signal (you cannot tune into an FM radio station), then the most likely cause of your problem is that your FM antenna is broken. This is assuming that you get only static while on the FM setting on the radio. If you get nothing, meaning no sound at all, then there is most likely a mechanical or electrical problem with the insides of the radio. (the FM button is broken, the chipset is blown...or a number of other electrical problems)
