While many households today do not even have one FM radio (2020 survey find 68% of all Americans have at least one radio in their home), we have been given a few over the years, and I use an old laptop with about 20,000 evangelical sermons and songs which broadcasts to the household 24/7 - with no commercials - over a cheap USB powered (legal 0.5 watt) FM transmitter at 87.5 (empty spot, which some radios do not go to, since FM broadcast in the United States starts at 88.0 MHz and ends at 108.0 MHz. Works quite well on the same floor, and outside to about 50 feet to a portable radio. Praise God.

Wow, I find this shocking enough that I don’t believe this statistic.
a lot of phones have built in fm tuners that will work without cel service (at least mine do)
a lot of people have stereo systems or mini systems which probably have fm and am.
some people might even have cars which have fm tuners.
a lot of people might even listen to sports on a transistor radio.
maybe I just am biased cause I bought my first radio when I was around 6 or 7
I never listen to radio in my house and I don't have any AM or FM radios inside my house. The closest is the one in my car in the garage. Driving is the only time I listen to radio. I could stream radio through my computer, but never do.
