This is true. However, we know that a lot of Class A equipment IS used
in commercial, light industrial and even residential environments, in
Europe as well as elsewhere, and, AFAIK, the level of complaints of
interference is not excessive. I presume that this is due to the low
usage of AM reception now, in most areas, and the low expectations of
those that do receive it, on $10 trannies or $50 boom boxes, not
magnificent Grundig-type table radios with 4.495 kHz overall bandwidth. 

So there are good grounds, IMO, for a single set of limits, nearer Class
A than Class B.
