Okay kiddo, so you know how your favorite songs and stories can come through the radio in your car or at home? Well, that's because of something called FM broadcasting.
In Australia, FM radio stations use a special frequency to send out their signal. This frequency is like a special code that only radios can understand.
The government regulates these frequencies so that different radio stations don't overlap with each other and make a big jumbled mess of noise.
When you turn on your radio and tune it into a station, you're essentially telling your radio to listen for that specific frequency. Then, the radio takes that frequency and turns it into sound that you can hear.
FM radio is really popular in Australia! There are so many stations to choose from, playing all different kinds of music and talk shows. So next time you're dancing around to your favorite tune on the radio, just remember that it's all thanks to FM broadcasting!
