A significant number of those stations are not in the top 20 markets, and
many are not even in the US.

Name me the viable AM stations in the top 20 US markets. "Viable" in
radio
means "able to cover the entire radio metro day and night with a usable
signal."


Hell, for starters, name me the viable AM stations in Washington, DC.


Just the top 10 markets have only 32 to 35 viable AMs in total. The

next
ten
markets have even less... maybe between 16 and 18 (per BIA). After

that,
the
average market has one to two viable AMs per market.
