Commercial AM broadcast stations are licensed to operate on carrier frequencies

spaced every 10 KHz across the AM band ... 560, 570, 580, ... 1570, 1580, 1590, etc.

But typical consumer-grade AM receivers can't separate two strong local signals

that are only 10 KHz apart, so there are never two stations licensed that close

together in the same city.

Will Radio stations with different frequencies interfere with one another?

No. If they are very close in frequency the radio may have trouble filtering out the unwanted station but generally they will not interfere.

What is the frequency used by most commercial radio stations?

In the USA: All commercial AM stations are assigned frequencies in the band 550-1620 KHz, in increments of 10 KHz. All commercial FM stations are assigned frequencies in the band 88-108 MHz, in increments of 100 KHz (0.1 MHz).


Why doesn't Digital radio hold station?

The digital radio does not hold the stations because the frequencies of the stations keep changing from one frequency to another.

Yes we can. At least for the commercial broadcast stations in the USA.AM stations:Carrier frequencies are at every 10 KHz, between 550 KHz and 1700 KHz.FM stations:Carrier frequencies are at every 0.2 MHz, between 88.1 MHz and 107.9 MHz.


What is the frequencies in the range of RF waves used by commercial radio broadcasting stations?

Each country has different frequency bands allocated for AM and FM radio. In the U.S. AM takes up the range from 535KHz to 1605KHz. FM radio takes 88.0MHz to 108.0MHz.Each radio station then receives a slice of that frequency band, regulated by the FCC. Each station is typically given a frequency far from all other stations. For example, three stations would be given the frequencies 93.3MHz, 94.5MHz and 96.1MHz. In theory, the stations could be closer (ie 94.3MHz, 94.5MHz and 94.7MHz) though this is rarely done because each station would then cause more interference to its neighbors.(The stations don't actually 'cause interference' to their neighbors. The weaknessis the ability of consumer-grade receivers to separate stations whose frequenciesare close together.)
