Caption: Figure 5.

Number of FRBs above completeness (black solid) and sky area (orange dashed) as a function of sensitivity cutoff. As the threshold is raised, the sky area and the number of candidate FRBs for inclusion are reduced. Likewise, fewer candidates are filtered out for having insufficient S/N to survive a translation to a location with the threshold sensitivity. Whether NE2001 or YMW16 is used to calculate pulse-broadening effects, the samples sizes are nearly identical across all sensitivity cuts.
