I wouldn't say overcrowded, it more conditions. 30 years ago, night-
time was all about the clears, and most local were low power at night.
There is practically no difference in night operation of AM in either
quantity or power of stations between 1978 and today.
30 years ago you could hear WLS in Los Angeles.
You still can when the UT station is off.
The changes that have taken place are all about the overall noise levels,
not with the stations themselves.
And who dropped the ball when the noise levels were creeping up?
The FCC has been underfunded for this type of thing for decades.
