Anyone have a list (or guide for a PDA) of all the good radio stations around the country on the ADF?

I am getting sick of scrolling through them all to find some good tunes! Besides, it wastes precious "eyelid checking time".

Preferably it would be searchable by the nearest VOR. For instance, over CCC you can get country on 1680, rock on 1590, over BTL sports on 760, etc.

I think I saw someone had a big list in his Jepps binder. Worked pretty good.

Any thoughts?

P.S. Paul Foley likes it in the booty! (I know)
 
Do a google search for AM radio stations in the area you're thinking of?

Yeah, I thought there would be something easier than doing that.

Cause 1.) I am a lazy bum.
and 2.) Thats alot of area to cover at .82 mach!

Plus i think there are alot of stations that dont come through very well at fl320.

you shouldnt have a problem picking up stations at that altitude, unless you are trying a little 500W station or something. Dawn and Dusk will do strange things to the AM band, which already isnt line of sight and causes some odd bending and bouncing of the waves. This is what will let you pick up WOAI 1200 out of san antonio when you are over salt lake. Its a 50KW station, i'd just make a list of those (particularly the ones that broadcast coast to coast am overnight).
 
Why listen to that scratchy AM stuff when you could just pick your iPOD out of your backpack and stick in those earbuds so's not to mess up that spikey hairdoo ;)

I got a guide from a CA who gets them from his AME. There! If the FAA Medical Branch condones it, then it must be O.K. to listen-up while flying!! I copied down a bunch of stations from the guides on my favorite right-wing radio hosts' station guides and mostly go for that, and the music on the weekends.

There are a couple iPOD splice-in cables that will enable you to listen in via your A/C headsets. Better than sticking a bud in one ear and listening to ATC in the other. Some models will cut out during transmissions, but I would find that annoying.

Thank GOD NDBs are still operating in the US Airspace system!!! Lest the ADF be disabled/removed!!
