AM Stereo Sound

Introduction

If you do not have an AM Stereo radio yet, you can still get to hear what AM Stereo sounds like, through your computer, by downloading and playing the following MP3 sound files. Any computer made in the past six years or so with multimedia sound capabilities should be able to play these MP3 files. All you need is a program that plays MP3 sound files. For DOS users, I recommend MPXPLAY. For Windows users, almost everybody uses "WinAmp", but I personally recommend WinPlay3, because it is much easier to use than WinAmp. (WinPlay3 available for all versions of Windows from 3.1 to present.) Apple Macintosh users are not left out because there is also a Mac version of this program available at the same web site!

Now, with an MP3 player set up and running on your computer, you can download and play any of the MP3 sound clips of AM Stereo that are listed below. After the file name, you will see the file size (in kilobytes) listed... the larger files will take a while to download, but they are worth it!

After the file size, the brand and model number of the AM Stereo-capable radio that was used to make the recording is listed. For more information on these radios, go to the excellent listing of AM Stereo radios, with photos! Finally, after the radio type, you will see the date when the recording was made.

Please note that many of these MP3 files are "scoped"; that is, parts of the actual broadcast have been cut out, so that you can hear a better example of what the station sounds like without having to sit through a whole song or a set of commercials. Of course, this also means that the file is shorter and therefore takes less time to download. Enjoy!
