On receiving, within the limits of internal noise of a system, gain does not matter. Neither does efficiency. If two antennas are compared on the basis of gain, or take-off angle, the result is basic

Actually I think this may already exist. I do not have K6STI's AO (Antenna Optimizer) program but I do have his Yagi Optimizer 7.0. The following is from YO7 documentation: "-- F/B AND F/R -- YO uses

I agree with Tom, and two practical examples come to mind. First the Pennant, which has a stated gain of MINUS 30 dBi, and the shielded loop (SLOOP) which is also a loser gain wise. Fact is the noise

Make sure the plots are normalized before each comparison. This will remove the gain factor for determining the directivity of a receiving antenna system. Compare each set of plots at various azimuth

Eznec exports a pattern table that may somehow be able to be imported into a spreadsheet, but don't ask me how to do that. One problem with Eznec is it doesn't plot groundwave. That means low angle

The EZNEC-PRO version of EZNEC does compute groundwave response. Interestingly the groundwave pattern for some antennas is quite different from the far-field free-space patterns. 73, John W1FV -- FAQ

My number isn't a good one to use for reducing a point source of noise. Due to surrounding objects, the exact depth and azimuth of a particular null (to minimize a point source noise) can be inexact

The current thread of EWE's, Beverages and other receiving antennes has neglected one important point. If you have the room to use a Beverage, do it. If you have to compromise, the loop, EWE's or sho

Actually a Beverage (or any other long wire array) supplies among the lowest directivity per acre of space of any array. The saving grace is that they are simple and easy to build, and more forgiving
