The rules for documenting spectral occupancy are more complex than many realize, resulting in an industry-wide tendency to make compliance measurements that are not entirely consistent with the rules. In particular, while it may already be challenging for some AM stations to identify measurement locations that are free of unwanted noise and interference, directional AM stations have an added burden of seeking out measurement ...
