I knew as much, really.  What I'm getting at is something Doug  
McDonald mentions on a regular basis - we don't have a mult-path  
problem, per say, but a low signal problem.  Correct me if I'm wrong,  
but I believe there are very few stations running at or near full  
power.  And all the while, we blame reception problems on multi-path.
