Most phones have a radio antenna, it's just not a default application feature for whatever reason.

If you're running an android phone, you should be able to enable a radio with little trouble.

A lot of the phones in the US will have a radio but no internal antennae. The radio is only activated when headphones are plugged in as they become the antenna.

For a while you could use apple headphones as an antenna for the FM radio in the iPhone.
