I was a navy brat that had to move around a lot. We were in and out of the country every 6 months. I used to believe that the AM dial on my radio was for American Music and the FM was for Foreign Music
A childhood belief about radio

others believed things like this
- I used to think that AM and FM stood for "American Music" and "Foreign Music."— Sylvia Fowler
- My music teacher once said that music in an electrical piano was made by little tiny men that lived inside it.Anon
- I used to think that the music from a car radio came out of the heater/air vents in the dashboard.— Joe
- I used to believe if you listened to to music upside down the music would be backwards— HOopty
- i used to believe (because my dad told me so) that AM stood for "awful music" and FM stood for "fine music"— skydvgrl
- when i was little i thought that NAVY SEALS were actual seals that were navy blueAnon
