This is the only one of the cases you mention that I know anything about. 
The 25 kW version of WGTR operated under special temporary authority (STA) 
pending the submission of a proof-of-performance showing that the station
conformed to the directional pattern specified in its construction permit. 
Despite several attempts (in one of which I was a participant), the
station never succeeded in achieving the desired pattern; I was
subsequently told that the pattern was hopelessly unrealistic. This is
certainly a special case; applications to cover are normally routine (I
have filed three of them in the last two years).
