The head of the FCC is backing efforts to mandate that car-makers keep AM radio as an option. It’s led by Senator Ted Cruz of Texas. He says it’s both a life-line for those in rural America and a key information source during natural disasters.
FCC Chair Brendan Carr is dismissing claims that AM radio is messing with the sensors in electric cars. He told Capitol Hill lawmakers that relatively inexpensive shielding devices prevent interference.
