Right-o. The two categories of interference that have the potential to actually bring about change are: 1. Interference TO a local station's groundwave signal within its protected contour and within its home sales market. (The KFBK-vs-KXPA example several NW DXers have noted in the last few days is a good example of this.) 2. Interference to a Canadian signal within its protected contour from an adjacent-channel US signal. (The best example so far is WTIC on 1080 impinging on CBA 1070; alas, CBA is headed over to FM soon, so this problem will go away in practice, if not in theory.) Any other category of interference may be annoying as heck to DXers and even to "real" listeners, and may even damage revenue for affected stations (think WSM and the Grand Ole Opry), but the affected stations will have a heck of a time winning any kind of legal action.
