Abstract
A detailed investigation is presented of a simple unidirectional finite-energy solution of the 3D wave equation. Its asymptotics as a spatial point runs to infinity with the wave propagations speed is a standard spherical wave as z < 0, where z is a Cartesian coordinate, and has an additional factor logarithmic with respect to the distance as z > 0. Asymptotics for a point running to infinity with an arbitrary constant speed is discussed
