Narrative:

Aircraft exiting the runways continue to be weak and garbled resulting in numerous callback/readbacks. This situation continues to be a factor in the ground operation after 2 yrs with no apparent end in sight. These blind spots also involve runway xings and could result in runway incursions or worse.
