Interesting observation, Nick.  My K9AY which is my primary TP/TA MW antenna normally works best in the "W" position for TPs and "N" for the TAs.  On occasion, though, I have even
found the "S" best for even the JJ stations.  (The directions are actually about +20 degrees from True, so it makes sense that my "W" is actually closer to 290 degrees than 270.....Walt.
