Embodiments of the present invention provide a navigation device (10) and
method that are operable to locate a radio station utilizing a user's
current geographic location. The navigation device (10) generally
includes a location determining component (14) operable to determine a
current geographic location of the device (10), a memory (16) operable to
store data corresponding to radio stations and related geographic
locations, a processor (12), and a display (20). The processor (12) is
operable to identify at least one radio station utilizing the current
geographic location of the device (10) and the display (20) is operable
to present an indication of the identified radio station. Such a
configuration enables accessible radio stations to be easily located
without tedious and potentially dangerous manual scanning of radio
frequencies.
