Here's a screen shot of an AM coverage map using grid-based gradient shading signal value colors.. 

AM-Pro 2 is a major upgrade to V-Soft's already powerful AM allocation and coverage mapping platform. In addition to numerous powerful upgrades, this new version supports "grid style" calculation of ground wave and sky wave field strengths and interference.

Daytime allocation studies are enhanced by the ability to remove overlap area over water and accommodation for the existing facility. Night allocation studies now support full 'clipping' studies. Among the new features of AM-Pro 2 are the following:

bullet Enhanced equivalent distance methodology for quick limit and point location field strength calculation.
bullet New database searching system where a table of ‘matches’ is reported (like in Probe 3)
bulletAbility to edit the AM database (and/or create custom databases)
bullet Ability to add a special radial or radials at a non-integer number of degrees.
bullet User definable border color and width specification for contour display.
bullet Ability to ‘fill’ contours with a user specified color.
bullet Revamped and advanced pattern editor for quicker response and flexibility. Also includes the ability to resize the advanced editor window and zoom in on a specific part of the graph.
bullet Interference areas over water can be eliminated from calculated interference areas and maps.
bullet Enhanced contour plotting for daytime allocation to show only the reference station contours that are relevant to the currently selected station(s).
bullet Ability to plot and ‘highlight’ the existing facility station contours in daytime allocation studies.
bullet Handles class C stations where power has been reduced from 1 kW (with increased efficiency).
bullet Daytime radiation limit calculation speed has been significantly increased.
bullet Ability to determine contour overlap areas and include polygons in those areas.
bullet Ability to move city names to desired location, set populations, or remove.
bullet For day studies added ability to change the channel of the reference station without re­running the study.
bullet Cancel Button for initial night and day allocation studies (so the user can go back to the ‘wizard’ and change a setting if a mistake was made)
bullet Remove day time limits that are at ‘water’ points for interactive pattern editor (option).
bullet Support for full “clipping” studies for nighttime studies.
bullet Addition of a user defined “point protection” for night allocation.
bullet Ability to specify a user defined boundary for clipping purposes on nighttime studies
bullet If the “existing facility” for a class D station is picked up it will be now included as a contributor in an RSS study.
bullet Provide the ability to calculate “grid style” ground wave and skywave coverages.
bullet Added a ‘default’ setting for single station RSS studies (for station selection).
bullet Added quick NIF contour level calculation to coverage study.
bulletAbility to calculate/plot "grid style" interference. (similar to Probe 3)
bulletAutomatic calculation of critical hour radiation limits.
