Rich:

In some cases you are over stating the problem as interference is outside 
protected contours. But, I have heard interference pretty early in the afternoon 
when WHAM is very obviously causing problems with WLIB and this is in Manhattan 
and well within the WLIB 5 MV/M contour. It is ironic that WLIB's lower daytime 
power is in part due to protecting WHAM.
