Amplification is the process of making a signal louder. It is not the same as tuning a radio receiver.

An amplifier is a device that takes a signal and makes it bigger as it reaches the amplifier's output. It can make the signal bigger by increasing the voltage, increasing the current or increasing both current and voltage, known as power amplifiers.

Audio amplifiers that drive a loudspeaker are power amplifiers as they increase the power of the signal to drive the speaker itself.

Tuning a radio adjusts the frequency that the radio aerial is sensitive to and allows only one frequency to be captured by the circuit attached to the aerial. By doing this, the radio can pick up a single broadcast and reject others. Before we can hear the received radio signal, it will be passed through a power amplifier and then to the speaker.

A new FM radio station needs to select a carrier frequency Another FM station in the area uses a frequency of 90 MHz what carrier frequency can the new station use?

The new station should stay below 89.7 or above 90.3 MHz. Now, here's a different, real-world answer: The new station should have access to any frequency it wants, as soon as the court-battle is over. The incumbent station on 90 MHz is operating illegally, and should be given the boot. FM broadcast carrier frequencies are assigned only at 88.1 + 0.2N MHz. FM stations may be assigned to operate at 89.7, 89.9, 90.1, 90.3, 90.5, etc., but not at 90 MHz. The existing station has no license, and should be regarded accordingly !
