Devendra Banhart - Live @ KCRW; Lossy Source? (Freq. screencap inside)

So, got this Devendra Banhart @ KCRW's "Morning Becomes Eclectic" in a postal trade the other day, and since it had quite a large ? in the lineage (Studio > FM Broadcast > ? > FLAC), I decided I'd try my first frequency analysis to see if it was lossy source (being that the webcast is the usual source for KCRW's without complete lineage) Soon discoverd that FM broadcasts and mp3 sources have a tendency to look similar in a freq.anal., so I thought I'd run it by the collective intelligence of TTD. So, is this lossy or not? The neat "haircut" right at 16K makes me tend to believe that it is, but I'm hoping against hope that's the FM compression.

Thanks!
