Default A potential solution to IBOC interference.

NAB Asks For FM Translators For AM Stations
The NAB is petitioning the FCC to allow AM stations to use FM
translators to fill in coverage areas within the AM's 2 mV/m daytime
contour or within 25 miles of the station's transmitter. The petition
notes AM stations' reception problems from electrical interference and
the pending trouble with extending Daylight Savings Time for four
additional weeks starting next year, meaning stations which power down
at night will experience more weeks of diminished service in drive times.

They just want to keep the 3rd adjacents out of the LPFM peoples'
hands.

If AM stations want to simulcast on FM, do what anyone else wanting an
FM station is forced to do. Either pony up and buy an existing
transmitter or apply for an allocation

And then turn in your waste-of-bandwith AM licence.
