It will also tell you where each one's transmitter/s are, so you will know where to point your antenna/s - for each one.

It won't tell you which ones sound good. That is, which ones use very little dynamic range compression. Nor will it tell you which ones you will like or hate. If any have a listen on line facility you can do previews even though the sound quality will be lower.

Don't live in America and don't know if there's an AM equivalent to FM Fool.

I don't bother with AM except for two stations and that rarely. Both have good sound because they are subject to a national charter, being publicly owned. Their signal extends to about 15Khz so I need the whistle filter for day time.

[I use an old tube simulcast rcvr rebuilt with a MPX unit added and the two AM stages combined, and the power amps off.]

Have a listen

Nope, the rotation is determined by the transmitting antenna. - Timbo in Oz 17:54:26 04/07/14 (3)
