Looking for Talk Radio, Blues, Classic Rock, Sports, Country, or other radio stations near your home town or where you will be traveling? Especially if you're driving, don't waste time turning a knob or pressing buttons, preventing you from fully concentrating on the road.

Radio-Locator bills itself as "the most comprehensive radio station search engine on the internet", and with links to over 10,000 webpages and 2,500 streams, it's hard to argue. You can search for radio stations in a particular city or zip code or display information on a station by its call letters. You're not limited to US stations; this site supports a worldwide search. Plus, if you plan on listening to radio over the Internet, search supported stations by format. There's also an advanced search page with more options.

Interesting features include graphics that display signal strength for over-the-air stations, transmitter locations and other technical information, and a link that provides vacant frequencies in the area. The latter can be very useful if you plan on playing music from your digital audio player on your car stereo via a wireless FM transmitter.
