I guess Photoshop allowed you to edit the caption to @75' and change the colors for the cursors.

 

The reason the patterns were so busy has to do with the matching device I added to the I-10K. I just designed and configured the trombone to the proper dimensions, and it looked just like the real thing. I can also tune the antenna a little moving the end elements, just like on the real antenna, and it does work to fix the mild mismatch.

 

If this result is correct then it is somewhat unique for me, however I also see this tendency in the Wolf .64wave GP's pattern.

 

The I-10K looks to produce both vertical and horizontal signals in the pattern. According to Eznec, the red lines are the vertical pattern, the green lines are the horizontal, and the black is the combination for the overall gain developed by both.

 

Regarding your eyes going cross eyed, you have to stop looking for those lobe patterns.:wink:

 

Here is a video I did a while back showing my Gain Master against my Starduster using my TS 579D and the internal switch box to change the antennas.
