Saving AM Radio

It's even awful here in rural Vermont. Sizzling, buzzing, hash ... you name it. Glad that both AMs I'm interesting in listening to here (sports and classic country) have FM translators. AM is just an aggravating extra button push for me now -- I have to push the "Band" button in my car at least twice to get from my two banks of FM channels to my three banks of SiriusXM channels, because there are two banks of AM channels separating FM from SiriusXM. If there were some way to block AM on my car radio, I'd do it.
Off topic, but someone messed up on "American Dad". They were listening to a satellite station but the display said "FM".
 
Yesterday, I was checking out the website of the first newspaper I worked for, nearly 50 years ago, and was surprised to see an NAB "Save AM" banner ad there -- on a sadly appropriate page.
