Best Answer

The signal is transmitted by way of electromagnetic radiation, the same type of energy that, within the visible spectrum, makes up light. The signal can maintain an analog profile, or the signal can be transmitted digitally, but the energy form is the same. However it is transmitted, the radio converts the signal to sound by way of the speaker elements to your ear.

Whether or not the radio signal reaches your ear is irrelevant. There are millions of radio

signals entering your ear right now, but your ear is totally incapable of doing anything with

them, and you're completely oblivious to their presence.

What you really need is for the radio signal to reach your radio receiver. There it can be

demodulated, and the audio information encoded on the carrier can be used to generate

a copy of the sound. Then you're ready to send it to your ear, where there are mechanisms

prepared to deal with sound. The sound travels from the loudspeaker or earphones as

mechanical waves in air ... exactly the same way my wife's voice travels to my ear when

we're both in the same room. The only difference is that a sound reconstructed from a

radio signal can be shut off at will.

The sounds from the radio station do not reach your home. Information is added

to the transmitted radio waves that can be picked off by your radio receiver, and

used to manufacture a reasonable copy of the sounds. In that way, anybody who

has a radio receiver can have his own copy of the sounds, in his own home or car.

Information, and a tiny bit of energy.

The signal gets to the radio in form of the so-called "radio waves", which is a type of electromagnetic wave.
