Speaking as a neighbor of a truly annoying AM radio station, I think the
answer to that question could go either way. If the neighbors have as
much trouble with signal bleed as we do here, they likely would be
overjoyed to see the radio transmitter located elsewhere.

I'm not any more convinced of the "accident waiting to happen" claim than
you are -- after all, there have been fewer accidents due to the tower
than one might expect at a runway. And we don't go around calling runways
"an accident waiting to happen". Given the virtually nonexistent number
of accidents related to the tower, it's clearly NOT an "accident waiting
to happen".

But implying that a radio station would be more popular with neighbors
than an airport indicates a misunderstanding of the impact a radio station
has on neighbors.


I didn't say neighbors, I said the local area. Those affected would be
those that listen to the radio station. I'd wager that's quite a few more
than those annoyed by signal bleed.
