	I think part of what ARRL wants to back up gain data
	are actual antenna range data,  etc;  expensive and
	time consuming to generate.  Computer modeling
	is not accepted as valid evidence for gain performance
	by the ARRL,  as far as I know. 

	Jim, as I understood it, the ARRL allows advertising of antennas so
long as the vendor submits a valid computer model so that performance
figures can be verified by ARRL engineers. I assume that so far no vendors
want to make their models public for competitive reasons.
