Broadband involves sending multiple signals on multiple frequencies. Broadcast involves using radio waves also known as electromagnetic radiation to send signals.
The waves used to broadcast radio signals are called RF waves and these generally lie in VHF and UHF band of electromagnetic spectrum.

One advantage of Radio over Television in this day and age is accessibility. Television broadcast has been limited to digital signals with a more limited broadcast range. Radio is still analog with a much larger, generally, broadcast range. Radio also tends to be less distracting to drivers...
A portable radio is able to pick up typical AM and FM signals given by over the air radio broadcast stations. An example of this type of radio is the boombox. The amount or number of signals/channels the radio receives is dependent on location and the type of radio.
TV broadcast signals are in the VHF & UHF radio bands, shorter than most of the radio bands but longer than the microwave band.
The Kenwood KDCHD942U works with normal radio signals. Most radio stations have switched to HD transmission, like Television broadcast stations.
The basic reason is that AM radio is broadcast on a lower frequency, while FM is broadcast on a higher frequency. And the lower frequency signals will curve around the earth a bit more than the higher frequency FM signals. FM is considered more "line of sight" than AM, which has that "fat" ground wave that hugs the earth a bit more.
The IBOC Broadcast System stands for the In-band on-channel system. In-band on-channel incorporates both digital and analog radio signals which transmit together on the same frequency.
A radio broadcast can be heard within a 50-mile radius. What is the approximate area the radio broadcast can be heard?
