 Isn't there some restrictions on structures that can effect the field-strength 
when the structure is near a BC station? I want to remember that if your tower 
affect the field-strength distribution of a BC station you have to take measure 
not to disturb it.


I am sure, if you have any sizable voltage/current induced by a nearby BC 
station you certainly change the radiation pattern from that station.


Just something to be aware of.

When the T-top is resonated into the BC band, be prepared for some very high 
base voltages if it's located anywhere near a BC station at the top of the BC 
band.   The better CIA and VNA devices can be operated in these conditions and 
still provide valid measurements.
