Final Notes:

The Bi-Radial design results in some narrowing of the pattern as frequencies increase therefor difficult to give a single number for the dispersion, but the rated 90x40 seems roughly appropriate. Vertical coverage is generally smooth following the tapering pattern, The horizontal is similar but with a bit of waistbanding just below 2k and a small kink around 17k.
