That's one of the reasons AM has so little appeal to the generations that
grew up on FM... interference, noise, static, lousy audio quality.


Most people have no idea what "audio quality" means.


They can certainly tell the difference between AM and FM. That is why nearly
nobody under 50 or 55 listens to AM.

Doubtful. How do you know the 30-somethings aren't merely avoiding your
surveyors at the mall or on street corners. Maybe people who listen to
AM radio don't go to the mall.

Nobody surveys radio audience at the mall or on the street corner.
