Well, let's see, the Everglades are a waste empty flat space, and  
there is a very large metropolitan area a bit north and east, and  
nothing to interfere with reception.  You know, no pesky trees,  
hills, buildings, much less mountains.

Shoreham, VT is within spitting distance of Hanover, a bustling  
metropolis of, what, 10,000? Of course, there is that pesky ridge of  
mountains in the way... and on the other side is Adirondack Park. Not  
exactly a mobile friendly area.

OK, OK, Hartford and Hanover and White River Junction together are  
about 15,000
