>If a TV station started leaking over another channel, you can bet that'd be shut down almost immediately, regardless of the cost to the station for putting up faulty broadcasting equipment. Any leaking that happens is caused by the 5G transmitters in the case under consideration. You are confusing two issues. The issue here is that strong and close transmitters can not be properly blocked by some of the radar altimeters in use under the separation rules established by the FCC. An important job of the FCC is separating TV transmitters that are close in frequency so that they do not cause problems. If you live next door to a TV transmitter you will have no hope of receiving signals on adjacent channels. That is because of the physical limitation of your receiver and has nothing to do with the transmitter leaking anything.
