    AM radio is not only longer range, as the person above already noted, but a highly stable and maintainable old technology requiring minimal functional infrastructure. It is perfect for emergency broadcasts. It’s actually idiotic to remove am radio, it’s a classic case of manufacturers trying to save a few cents because they don’t give a shit about public safety.
