*SPAM 50* - :Re: Herald: sticking points in the Carr issue

[Sid Schweiger]

>>One time, when I was co-hosting a "Let's Talk About
Radio", Bob Bittner said he possessed or saw a population density map 
of the Boston urban area from before the buildout of arterial roads,
and the population at that time dropped precipitously one you got past

Waltham. Thus when the antenna designs were made for those outlets<<

Not entirely.  While population to be served certainly is a factor, so
is skywave protection of the (at the time) 1-A signals.  WRKO's nulls
protect KNBR/SF, and WEEI's protect KOA/Denver.
