1584 AM

1584 AM refers to a frequency on the AM (Amplitude Modulation) radio band. In most parts of the world, the AM band is allocated for radio broadcasting and operates within the medium frequency (MF) range. The number "1584" specifically designates a carrier frequency of 1584 kilohertz (kHz).

Radio stations broadcasting on 1584 AM transmit audio signals by modulating the amplitude of this carrier wave. Radio receivers tuned to this frequency demodulate the signal, extracting the original audio information for listeners.

Allocation and licensing of specific AM frequencies, including 1584 AM, are managed by governmental regulatory bodies such as the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) in the United States. These bodies assign frequencies to broadcasters to avoid interference and manage the radio spectrum efficiently.

The range and signal propagation characteristics of 1584 AM, like other AM frequencies, can vary depending on factors such as transmitter power, antenna type, time of day, and atmospheric conditions. AM signals are known to propagate further at night due to ionospheric reflection.
