WBUR Directional?

I can't explain this, but your URL and mine DON'T yield the same pattern!
Yours displays a pattern with VERY DEEP minimum at 340 degrees. (The minimum
is SO DEEP, in fact, that the FCC would not allow such a pattern; FCC rules
limit the depth of minima in FM directional patterns). My URL displays a
pattern with a very shallow minimum at the same azimuth. I believe that my
long URL displays the correct pattern, not only because it does not contain
a minimum of "illegal" depth, but also because my listening to WBUR tells me
that there is no narrow deep minimum in its pattern just slightly west of
true north.

Somehow, the 340-degree radiation value must have been lost (and replaced by
zero) in the conversion from the long URL to the short one.
