Here in Vancouver the real-time traffic and news channels are all on AM. How would I be able to listen to those stations without AM?

- klyrs 4y agoA crystal set for your dashboard, probably. My '23 EV gets its time from GPS but for some blasted reason, doesn't account for daylight savings. I have to toggle the "daylight savings" clock setting twice a year.

- noizejoy 4y agoI’m actually wondering how long those stations will survive, given that routing around traffic bottlenecks is becoming the domain of smartphone apps.
- galleywest200 4y agoCertainly for a while. I am also in the Pacific Northwest (US side) and we too have these stations but the signs on the freeway flash lights when the stations are giving _emergency_ information -- think floods, rockslides, avalanches...
