- I know there have been lots of discussions lately on the net concerning
- AM versus FM, but the topic has been of no interest to me until now so I
- haven't been reading up on it. Please bear with me when reading this
- question for the umpteenth time.
-
- Basically, I've had an Airtronics FM radio system on backorder for about
- a month now. I called Airtronics yesterday and they informed me that
- some parts are on backorder and they should get them in another 1 to 1.5
- months. I figure that by the time they get the parts, build the radios,
- ship them to Tower, and Tower ships it to me, it will be at least 2 more
- months.
-
- Well, Futaba also sells a micro system, but it is AM. So now the big
- question.....
-
- IS AM SO MUCH WORSE THAN FM THAT I SHOULD WAIT TWO AT LEAST TWO MONTHS
- FOR THE FM SYSTEM?
-
- I know AM has more of a problem with noise, etc, but has anybody read,
- heard, seen anything that would convince me to wait for FM or go with
- the AM?
-
- Thanks in advance!!
