Hey Chriss, why don't you lower the power to 80% on all your stations to save 
power!
Lets all vote against IBOC and kill that off as we did with Quad sound, Dolby 
FM encoding, and music in AM stereo. Next, lets all double the antenna gain 
so we can cut the TX power in half, doesn't matter that it may screw up 
pattern, coverage, penetration, or require more tower steel the power bills will be 
less. Then any station with 1 KW or less must be operated from solar, wind, 
fuel cell or other non bio power source.  Next, we'll build 4000' towers with 
common antennas for all markets that are less than 90 miles from adjacent markets 
so FM and TV  will need only a few hundred watts to provide LOS coverage of  
all the close together markets and reduce the adjacent channel adjacent market 
issues. Then the white space devices can move in.
