[Amps] 10 DB increase

[Radioal]

I am not questioning the fact that this was measured - only the basis for 
believing that what was measured had no other explanation than to disprove 
physical law.  I suggest that something else may be at work here to skew the 
measurements.  The challenge is to find the reason for it, not believe 
blindly in it.
