Signal orientation of the station? Same holds true for transmission & reception; verticals are omni-directional & horizontals are directional. A vertical FM tranmitting antenna can simply reach a wider-dispersed audience but it has absolutely nothing to do with signal polarization or automobile antennas (remember the automobile FM antenna used to be a dipole imbeded within the windshield).
