Tunearby — AM/FM radio and over-the-air TV stations near you

Pull into an unfamiliar town, wonder what is playing on the radio around you right now, or try to get free broadcast TV with an antenna — Tunearby answers that in your browser. It is a free web app that maps the AM and FM radio stations and the over-the-air TV transmitters near you, from a catalog of every full-service AM and FM station and every licensed TV transmitter in FCC public records. Allow location access to see stations near you, search any U.S. city, or pan the map anywhere in the United States. No sign-up, no account, no cookies, no ads.

Every U.S. station, from FCC records

The catalog covers every full-service AM and FM radio station in the United States and every licensed over-the-air TV transmitter (full-power, Class A, low-power and translator), sourced from Federal Communications Commission records, with TV network and subchannel names partly from Wikipedia. So whether you look up the local frequencies for a city, check which station a frequency belongs to, or want to know which TV channels reach your address, the answer comes from official licensing data.

Find local radio stations wherever you land

Tunearby lists the AM and FM stations near you, closest first, and lets you pan the map to any U.S. city to read its local frequencies. Common ways people use it:

  • Find the radio stations near you, sorted by distance
  • See which station a frequency belongs to, such as 88.1 FM or 1010 AM
  • Browse the AM and FM frequencies for a city before a trip
  • Check what is playing right now on nearby stations
  • See the over-the-air TV channels you can receive where you are

See what is on air right now

For stations in range, Tunearby shows the program airing at this moment, worked out in each station's own time zone, so it stays correct across a wide radius or a time-zone border. Tell at a glance whether talk, news, sports, or music is on the air nearby.

Over-the-air TV, too

The TV tab lists every TV transmitter within about 125 miles, with the distance and compass bearing to each tower, whether the FCC's predicted coverage reaches you, and the VHF or UHF band, and it finds a station from the channel number your TV shows, such as 31.1. Read the TV antenna guide for how to aim and what the predictions mean.

Free, private, and instant in the browser

The station finder runs entirely in your browser using WebAssembly SQLite: the catalog is bundled with the page and queried on your device, so it works instantly with no backend. Your exact coordinates never leave your browser. The page fetches map tiles from OpenFreeMap for the area on screen, sends a city name with a rounded position to a geocoder when you search, and counts visits without cookies. There is nothing to sign up for and no cookies to accept. Deny location access and the map falls back to a default view, so it still works. Read the privacy policy.

Native apps add live tracking while you drive and full station detail: Tunearby for iOS on the App Store and Tunearby for Android on Google Play.
