[TowerTalk] Proximity to broadcast television transmitters

[Steve]

I'm looking at a possible new QTH near some television broadcast 
transmitter sites. I estimate they would be a mile or more distant from 
the property I'm considering. I set out to determine the exact distance, 
but couldn't locate the TV transmitters on google maps. Wonder where I 
can find the latitude and longitude of a broadcast television transmitter?

Do broadcast television transmitters present any issues for nearby 
amateur HF operations? For 6 or 2 meter operation? Do the TV 
transmitters make transmitter noise or other spurious emissions that 
might interfere with reception of weak signals on the amateur bands?

The television broadcast stations with which I am concerned transmit on 
channels 3, 13 and 34. The respective web sites indicate these stations 
have made the transition to digital broadcasting. I poked around on the 
internet a bit but didn't come up with the actual transmitting 
frequencies for those DTV channels.

Thoughts or advice?

Thanks.
