This is cool, just discovered that an AM radio can be used as a Flipper Zero speaker, as long as the speaker is playing something even at a low volume. (Surprisingly, lower it is, the more clear the sound becomes.)

Here I’ve used some test videos to showcase this finding. The classic Bad Apple, the Doohickey Corporation video and an edited version of the Albuquerque animation.

Using the FZ as a proper music player is possible!

660 kHz WFAN (a clear channel New York station) mysteriously goes silent during a basketball broadcast- you can see it go dark where I happened to catch it.

A quick check of other SDRs (nope, dark everywhere). A quick check of the Internet broadcast, all OK.

Does anyone in the southern or middle US states remember listening to the KAAY AM radio station in Little Rock Arkansas (this was in the late ‘60’s)? I could pick it up at night in southern Mississippi where I briefly lived.

At night they would air a show called Bleaker Street or something like that. They played what was considered psychedelic music at the time like Flock of Seagulls’ “White Bird”, Traffic, Vanilla Fudge, Hendricks, etc…
