Why do physics classes use AM radios?

Hey guys I had to do a little reflection on a recent lab that my physics class had on building radios, so I was wondering why do physics classes use AM radios instead of FM?

Thanks for the help in advance!

  • The AM radio can be constructed much more simply.

    I think the real reason however has to do with drawing a block diagram, and example waveforms; in an AM radio it is much easier to grasp the relationships.
