I usually do not post stuff forwarded to me, but this is amazing. I was surprised at how many stations are in English or play American music where you wouldn't expect it. Frank Sinatra in Russia, Country in Ireland or some remote island playing Rock.

Enjoy traveling the world by radio. The green dots on this Google Earth represent a radio station anywhere in the world.

Click on any of the dots and you will immediately listen to radio stations in that city with very good sound; some cities have multiple stations available. There is some lag time if you find the same station that you are listening to at the same time. Some stations maybe off the air due to time difference.

The globe can be rotated by dragging it with your cursor. Note the lack of stations in China and North Korea.

"dual" antennas (meaning two), not "duel" antennas (meaning one fighting the other).

Ah, you are no fun. Give them little swords or pistols and record it for Youtube.

I still listen to them once in a while when the ham bands are quiet. I have a new Icom 7300 with the SDR waterfall display, and it makes finding them a lot easier. Even with a 1400 AM station two blocks away, my worst interference is from digital devices in the neighborhood, especially wifi routers which you can see up and down the band in different intervals depending on the band you're tuning. And the Chinese electronic junk - I have a car battery charger that even with toroids and filter capacitors added provides a nice 20 db over S9 noise level.
