I have a question.

I really don't understand well, the workings of the tuner section of a radio, so I'm not sure my question is even at all important.

But anyways here goes :

What is the significance of the changes to  intermediate frequencies during the 30s?
My research reveals it  started out  at 460kHz, then went to 470 kHz in 1937, . . . stayed there for a few years.  Then it dropped to 455kHz in 1940, where it stayed for the remainder of AM broadcast history. Icon_think
