While AM and FM radio operate and serve in much the identical manner and with the same rules, there is a slight difference between the two. AM Radio operates and work in much the same way as a television station does, in that it receives a signal from an antenna, amplifies it and then broadcasts it to a listenership. FM radio on the other hand, is simply a form of radio that receives its data through radio waves. AM radio is used in military operations and commercial operations in order to transmit data (such as radio shows and news) to their listeners.

FM radio uses two radio stations (or antenna stations) to send their signal to their listeners. One such station is assigned to transmit a signal to a listener's location. In the case of AM radio, these two stations are one another and broadcasting from a single antenna or station. The second station (the one who broadcasts) will receive the signal from the first radio station. Both these stations will rotate around their respective axes, known as the rotation angular momentum, within the range of their particular radio wave.

Once you have an FM radio transmitter and an FM station, you must set them up so that each station will receive the appropriate frequency for their zone. If you set up your radio to receive a frequency in your zone, you will only hear the station that you are tuning to. But if you set your radio to receive any particular frequency outside of your zone, you will hear nothing but that frequency. To solve this problem, many people purchase a pre-tuned fm radio transmitter and use it only within their own zone.

Setting up an FM radio is also much easier than for an AM radio. For an FM stereo, you need to plug in your tape, select a play station, and then select a channel to play with. It is as easy as that! You do not need to do anything else except for tuning your radio to its designated frequency.

A common question asked about the transferability of an FM radio signal is whether or not it can be copied. The short answer to this question is yes, it can be copied. Almost all FM broadcast signals are of the amplitude modulation type. This type of modulation produces a consistent signal strength after being copied over many times. The strength of the original signal can be changed by some external factors, such as transmitter power, indoor environments, and even transmission line width. However, regardless of the type of modulation used, an FM signal is only as strong as the weakest signal that was copied.

Amplitude modulation produces a weak to medium strength radio signal. The strength of the signal depends on how strong the transmitter's antenna is, what type of antenna, and even what type of signal source (for example, stations with dedicated broadcast receivers receive their own radio waves, which are stronger than those coming from other transmitters). Another characteristic that affects the strength of the transmitted radio signal is the modulation used. Frequencies used by radio stations are generally chosen based on their potential effectiveness and their compatibility with neighboring stations, along with their ability to easily transmit and receive.
