Eric:

I had understood that second or more adjacent stations were not entitled to 
protection from an interfering station.  Maybe I misunderstood things, can someone 
clarify this point?  In the Washington DC market, WTOP spews out IBOC has on 
WTRI 1520 which has part of its primary coverage area in the NW DC suburbs, but 
because WTRI is two channels away, it is not given protection.
