Glen, as you know, we both live within a few miles of the KRLD 50KW
transmitter/antenna site.
I have measured over 5 volts of rf on one of the upper tower guys at my
QTH. When I drive up the driveway with the vehicle radio on the AM band and
park near one of the guy anchors, there are several radio programs present at
the same time, indicating severe cross modulation.
How much is caused by the radio vs tower guys, I don't know.
Also, just driving around the area, the same thing happens at some street
intersections where there are many electrical lines etc present.
I guess I am wondering how much of the 160m QRM is cross mod vs radio
station harmonics.

Carl, you're not down here in the Dallas, Texas, area. Unfortunately, BCB
harmonics are on the band, especially during the day when the lower
powered daytime only stations are on the air.

One thing for certain is that it has been a long time since Ive heard AM
BCB harmonics on 160.
