Is it possilbe to tune in through a world receiver?

I was curious about those Grunding radios that let you listen to stations from around the world. Being in New Jersey would I be able to tune in WJFK? I know they are expensive but well worth it if I could listen to the boys again.

No, NO and NO!!!!
Assuming this is a legit question,
world radios receive short wave,
while the boyz are on FM.
Short wave signals bounce between the earth
and the atmosphere, and are thus audible around the world (but not without alot of static).
FM signals are "long wave", and audible only "line of sight" from the transmitter.
This limits FM to 50 miles or so, while AM can reach thousands of miles,
and short-wave literally around the world.
