A method and system is provided for enabling communication, where a FM radio system including an integrated FM radio transmitter and FM radio receiver may use an in-band FM or out of band transmitter to communicate a dynamically generated list with alternate local FM channels to an in-band or out of band receiver of another FM radio device with a FM radio receiver. The generated list of local FM channels may be ranked according to the least neighboring channel interference and may be selected for tuning the FM radio device. The FM radio system and the FM radio device may both scan to generate a substantially matched list of local FM channels. In response to detecting a new signal of a transmitted channel by the FM radio system, the FM radio device may tune to the same channel using an open loop, closed loop or semi-open loop method.
