Turn your car radio on to an AM station and drive under a bridge.
You will get interference. And with FM under the same bridge it wont get interference.
Am is good in wide open areas.
Indoors our AM gets glitched and at the out doors track it doesn't.
AM. is not good around power lines either.
As stated above spectrum or speed spectrum from Futaba is better.
The futaba I believe is better for electric.
