No AM. The PVR-x50's only have FM tuners.

If you can't get MythFM working, you can always add menu items with
EXECTV entries for radio. Something like:
<button>
<type>TV_PLAYBACK</type>
<text>WJRR - Real Rock 101</text>
<!-- Uncomment and adjust language/text for translations
<text lang="ES">Some Text</text>
-->
<action>EXECTV ivtv-radio -d %s -i %s -f 101.1</action>
</button>
Make sure you use EXECTV (not EXEC) since listening to the radio uses
the encoder (and, therefore, prevents the card from being used to record
TV).
