There is a Class C AM station with a nominal quarter wave vertical antenna.  About 700' (~one wavelength) away is a self-supporting cellular tower that is about 93 electrical degrees tall.  It has been there for several years and is not detuned.

Please ponder and comment on this question:  If the cellphone owner is aware of FCC rules and has refused to detune his tower and the station licensee is aware of the FCC rules and does nothing, does the licensee have any obligation, legal, moral or ethical to notify the FCC?

Your comments will be greatly appreciated.
