WBZ has no more nor no less efficiency than any station with a 1/2 wave
tower system What is different is that BZ is directional, with nearly no
power to the east and a lot of it to the west.- Hide quoted text -

In Wash., D.C, WBZ always comes in very clearly, and so does its
sideband hash.


DC is west of Boston... SSW, of course, but to the west. WBZ's null is at
90 degrees, and the peak power is from about 160 degrees to 30 degrees.
