They are the exception rather than the rule, but they're not unheard of,
especially here in the radio-crowded northeast.  There are quite a few
FM directionals in the noncommercial band, including WMBR and WBUR, and
all of the area class As on the traffic jam at 91.5 (WMFO, WMLN, WJUL,
WBIM - WZLY and WSRB don't, but they're grandfathered class Ds).  On
the commercial side, WROR has a directional antenna, as does WHRB,
and WBOQ has a construction permit for one.
