AM second and third adjacent protection rules

Guest
Can anyone tell me what the 2nd and 3rd adjacent rules are for protection on AM? I know that a new co-channel's 0.025 mv/m can't cross a 0.5 mv/m of an exisitng station and first adjacent 0.5 mv/m can't cross, but what is the rule for 2nd & 3rd?

Thanks!
