AM vs FM Reception
Commercial radio broadcasting is either AM (Amplitude Modulation) or FM (Frequency
Modulation).
AM
AM radio waves reflect off the ionosphere which results in consistent signal reception at a long
range (up to 100 miles or 160 kilometers).
However, AM radio can be displaced by loud humming, popping and crackling noises. This is
electrical interference caused by noise from vehicle ignitions, electric signs, power lines and
electrical storms.
FM
The advantages of FM radio are high fidelity sound, stereo reception, a wide range of
broadcasting formats and a signal that is free of electrical interference.
The disadvantage of FM radio is its short range. FM radio waves travel in straight lines, called
"line of sight," therefore, FM signals cannot be received over the horizon. At the limit of a station's
range, the reception may fade in and out when objects pass between the transmitter and the
motorcycle.
