Default How do I listen to local AM/FM radio on Storm?

Please Login to Remove!

Is there a website or app that I can download onto my Storm which would allow me to listen to local AM/FM radio stations?

I've tried adding the websites of local radio stations into the Storm but I cannot get the audio streaming.

Please let me know. Thanks.

Get BB app world. I use radio companion and pleased with it. I get several local radio stations and I'm not in a large radio market.

I loaded the app and it does work. It's the playing the local station I want but it's playing the audio from about 30 minutes ago.

Is is possible to get radio stations not in the list and get them live? I would like to use this app to listen to live sporting events.

Please let me know. Thanks.

I don't know about doing that with radio companion. I'd check BB Apps to see if there is another one there. There may be a better one that you can buy. Also Radio companion has a premuim service. That may be live as well I wanted a free app and I am willing to live w/ the delay for free.

i once suggested making a mini fm tuner that can hook up via micro usb to the phone.....but i don't have resources to make one.

the phone doesn't have built-in fm, so the next best thing is an app. but any app you choose will not give you what you want (live radio).....

if u've got an ipod u could get an adapter or if not the Zune HD has built-in HD radio.

angelot, please change your profile here to reflect your Storm?

Also, moodio.fm, flycast.fm and others... all have been talked about in the Aftermarket Software section.
