Do the radio stations produce the commercials? Or does a separate studio do that?

I was wondering if the radio stations have voice talents that create the commercials for people who want to advertise. Or does another studio do the recording and then give it to the radio station to play?
I wasn’t sure if the radio station was a one stop shop or if I need to find [...]

Will the government start censoring talk radio and the internet?

I have been hearing a lot of politicians and people in the media talking about how Sarah Palin and conservative talk radio somehow contributed to the mass shooting in Arizona. Even though no one really knows if the shooter ever saw the Palin target graphic or if he listened to conservative talk radio. Will the [...]

How does a radio station job work? And can one run without people? Can the music run by itself?

I am writing a movie about the apocalypse. In it, the characters listen to the radio, and it zooms in, and shows the radio station with everybody dead, but music still running. Is there a way to "shuffle" music, or make it run for about a week or so without humans being around? [...]

How do I open a low power radio station, and what are the rules?

I live in a small town and am in high school. None of the radio stations around here have any variety, so a friend and I wanted to start our own radio station that plays music. I’ve been doing my research on LPFM stations, but every single site I go to says something different. Can [...]

How does a crystal radio overcome the forward voltage drop of the diode being used?

With such little energy that is received thru the radio waves to power a crystal radio, how can that energy be allowed to pass thru the diode when the diode has a forward voltage drop of about 0.3-0.5 volts? How is that done?

Can you listen to radio on a cell phone without a Receiver?

I need to travel to Vilnius, but I don’t have a portable radio. Because the entire bus will probably be filled with hopeless nerds/engineers, I want to listen to radio, when we travel. But my phone doesn’t have an FM Receiver.
The thing is, the radio is lithuanian, and those, which broadcast through the Internet, [...]

What are the dimensions of the radio in a 2000 Pontiac sunfire?

I am looking to get a new radio, it’s a double-din. The dimensions for the new radio are 10.6 X 9.6 X 9.6. Does anyone know if this will fit? I don’t really want to take my dash apart only to find out. And I would like to find out before I buy this radio. [...]
