Paul,
I never claimed that there might still be some radio station 
somewhere that still has engineering discipline and might actually be 
a good place to work.

In response to:
 > Think before you speak
I did do my homework and I do know what I am saying. Do you see the 
tree growing at the base of a tower at Clear Channel's WKOX? 
http://gallery.bostonradio.org/miscellany/100-01124-med.html I wonder 
it this was included in their pattern calculations. Here is another 
view of the all too typical Clear Channel transmitter site. 
http://gallery.bostonradio.org/miscellany/100-01122-med.html Just 
like I said, just satellite dishes and weeds. Note that tree is 
between the towers!

This is just one of the Clear Channel stations that was bought so 
that they could have a tow-hold in the Boston market, actually in 
Framingham to get around some of those pesky FCC rules.
