And keep in mind, you can't just send someone up the tower with a set of
lights and have them install them. The tower system (tower, tower base, guy
wires, guy wire anchors) are designed to bear a specific maximum amount of
weight, and withstand a specific amount of wind loading. If the radio
station did install some lights without a proper engineering study, THAT
would probably affect their insurance. If the company found out about the
installation, they would probably cancel the policy; if the tower collapsed
without something colliding with it, they probably wouldn't pay, and if the
tower collapsed following a collision, and the insurance company found out
about the additional lights, they probably wouldn't pay.

Seems to me that this is an ideal opportunity for the station to add those
lights, since they have to put up a new tower anyway.
