This is exactly the right question. I live in the boonies, nearest AM 
broadcast is at least 10 miles away, and that only 1kW, So everything 
works for me.

At the QTH where I grew up in WV I was less than a mile from 5kW on 930 
kHz and 5kW on 1470 kHz. That was in the '50s, and antenna analyzers 
didn't exist. But I wouldn't expect most analyzers to work there.
