FM radio with battery/dynamo is recommended by the MSB Swedish emergency department in emergencies and is a product that should be in every households to be able to receive VMA (Important Notice to the Public) even if the power were to go out.

AM are the classic European stations that broadcast on 520-1700 KHz, Radio Luxemburg is a station with historical dignity, but there are also loads of different stations on the AM band. Unfortunately, the AM band is being phased out now that the internet has taken over, which is not optimal from a crisis perspective. However, it can still be a security to be able to tune in to an AM station in an extreme case where Sweden has stopped its FM broadcasts and you want to reach broadcasts outside Europe.
