680 AM
680 AM is a frequency on the amplitude modulation (AM) broadcast band, utilized for radio broadcasting. In the United States, this frequency is part of the standard AM radio band, which spans from 530 kHz to 1710 kHz. Radio stations operating on 680 AM are assigned by governmental regulatory agencies, such as the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) in the United States, and are subject to licensing requirements, power restrictions, and technical standards to prevent interference with other stations.
The 680 AM frequency, like other AM frequencies, is prone to interference from atmospheric conditions, particularly at night. This can result in increased radio signal propagation and the ability for stations to reach listeners at greater distances. This phenomenon is known as "skywave" propagation.
Stations broadcasting on 680 AM typically offer a variety of programming formats, including news, talk radio, sports, music, and religious programming. The specific format is determined by the individual station owner or operator and their target audience. The availability of specific programming varies greatly depending on location.
