FM in mono sounds better, even on a clock radio.

It does not sound better to me. FM has a little more of a high end
response but that's about it. You sure as hell are not going to hear the
difference on a clock radio.

Like I said before AM sounds good. I don't see what the problem is with
the sound quality. The quality can go down when you go out of the area
but you won't consider that anyway because it is out of the market. I
find weak signal FM more annoying than weak signal AM. FM gets a pretty
loud background hiss on a weak signal when you turn up the volume.

Many efforts have been made, all across the US, to make AM attract younger
demos via formats designed for 35-44, etc. The only one that has worked
somewhat is sports, but all music attempts have failed miserably. The
reason: AM does not sound as good. Listeners tell us this.

Well I suggest that you find out what the 35-44 group wants to talk
about then.

I'm not sure how you came to the conclusion the 35-44 group is not
listening. I hear plenty of people calling in to talk shows that are in
that age group. Often they call from work during the day or home later
in the day.

Their is no sense in putting music on AM except for the nostalgia
stations like I used to list to as a kid WKBW 1520 in Buffalo.

I would listen to WKBW because they brought back some of the
personalities from the past and they were very entertaining (read
besides the music that was played) but it looks like they went to left
wing talk radio. Pretty ugly. This link should be instructive.
