Editorials motorists tuned out on FM broadcasting standardization
The piece argues FM broadcasting in the area offers varied programming but many motorists prefer AM or lo-fi news and music. It critiques a proposed federal mandate to require AMFM tuners on radios over 15 dollars, noting added costs for high fidelity gear and little evidence that availability elevates demand. It highlights Sen. Moss noting 72 percent of car radios lacked FM last year and warns forced compatibility pressures buyers.
