 I'm looking for the answer in connection with a possible new way of
 evaluating antennas that I'm developing.
 
 Thanks for comments.

I'd suggest always having reference antennas the same height like a 2 element 
quad and the 2 element Raibeam for side by side comparisons. The 2 element 
quad and RaiBeam is the "K7GCO Standard of Reference" for all antennas.  You 
have to beat it to qualify as an antenna worth having on your tower 
regardless what the computer says.  The cost and headaches of bigger antennas 
has to justify themselves in great performance over these 2 to merit their 
use.  M2 has some that will do that.  K7GCO
