Keep built in tuners OFF of these devices! :)
Those that want it can buy an external tuner.
Buy a $10 battery operated AM/FM radio and store it with your military
MRE's and iodine tablets for the extremely rare instance of
"emergencies"
That's why, for me, cluttering the hardware and menu's and buttons to
receive the very source I'm trying to avoid with these players just
seems pointless. But then I can see where others would want OTA
broadcast capabilities.
