Best Answer

waves spread out as distance gets farther. So at certain places there is no radio. Also if big concrete buildings or bridges in way, radio waves cant get through it

because FM signals go in a straight lines while on the other hand am signals scatter so more people can use it

Radio broadcasts bounce off of the ionized layer of the atmosphere, the ionosphere, in order to reach more distant receivers, but the state of the ionosphere can vary, and it does not always reflect the way we want it to.

Does the far side of the Moon receive signals from a greater area of the sky than the near side?

The far side of the moon would receive the same signals with the exception of Earth originating signals. The radio equipment would not be subject to interference from the Earth signals on the far side so space originating signals would be easier to study.


How is diffraction used for radio communications?

A radio programme receiver does not need to be directly in view of the transmitter to receive programme signals. For low frequency radio waves diffraction can allow them to be received behind hills, although repeater stations are often used to improve the quality of the signals.
