At least in the States, AM & FM broadcasting is limited to 50 Hz to 15KHz.
AM is restricted by the NRSC standard to a 10 kHz brick wall.
Digital broadcasting is limited to under 20 Hz to over 20KHz, or
basically, the extent of the normal human hearing range.
If you're listening to 100 to 6,000 Hz, you're listening to a poor
telephone connection.
Bob Orban, on the NRSC committee, found that consumer radios almost without
exception, rolled off by at least 10 db by 4.2 kHz, and passed practically
nothing over 5 kHz.
That's funny, I just asked Bob if he 'found' this and he said no way,
that you're basically just making **** up off the top of your head.
Bob didn't test all the different model radios.
