A radio station is a facility that transmits radio broadcasts. It can be a beacon for navigational purposes, a broadcasting station for radio or television programs, or a station for producing and transmitting AM or FM radio broadcasts. Radio stations can also be platforms that transmit audio content over the internet, allowing users to listen to radio programs, songs, or speeches in close to real-time. These stations offer a variety of music genres, talk radio, chat rooms, and even e-commerce transactions, according to ScienceDirect.com.
