LPFM stations may use a directional antenna in order to achieve a facility that is compliant with an international agreement.  LPFM stations that are using directional antennas solely for that purpose are not required to obtain a proof of performance and verifications from an engineer and a surveyor.  Such directional antennas will be protected from FM translators as if they are operating with a nondirectional antenna.
