Directional station question

Perhaps the station(s) which you are now protecting are no longer on the air. You should find out exactly who you are protecting.

Don't know where to look - the approval is decades old. I do know there is WPLK 800 in Palatka, and 790's in Miami, Pensacola, Brunswick, and Atlanta that exist at this point. There is also 810 in Orlando- don't know if second adjacent chanell matters?? The night signal is pinched pretty hard N-S so????
 
You would need a consulting engineer to look that the skywave situation using software modelling tools. Sometimes, it is possible to improve a pattern and sometimes it isn't.
 
The sharp null to the south is almost certainly for WAXY 790 Miami. It isn't obvious who WLBE protects to the north -- it feels like there should be a class B somewhere around Jacksonville or Savannah but I don't see any evidence of that.
 
There is a 790 in Brunswick, but it is low power less than 1KW, and there is one in Atlanta with high power - 27KW I believe without looking.
