Are you nuts?  250W will do a whole PILE of damage to existing station
where the co-channel Class C's are now something around 150 miles and
closely spaced 1st adjacents on 1230/1240 have mutual destruction as it is
day and night.

I agree LPAM would be useful on a channel of their own...say 1690.  At
which point, 250W does't carry more than 10 miles on a good day and
skywave really wouldn't be an issue.
