I would agree with this.

Looking at your model, I see this.

I don't think this is a function of the NEC2 engine, all that does is provide the results. How those results are displayed are more of a function of the software that is showing them. 4NEC2 always shows the direction of maximum gain, but I can see other directions as well, even a 3d image the the pattern if I desire. I asked that question because I know that there is a direction where there was no skew, and I didn't know how EZNEC chooses which data to show by default. It may just be showing you a non-skewed pattern by default, but there is definitely some skewing with our designs, both of them.

When it comes to the I-10K and the Shoclwave designs, yes they will be similar. Honestly, the biggest difference in our models is how we incorporate the feed point. We clearly have very different ideas about how it is supposed to work. I think if I incorporated the feed point into your model as I did with mine it would be much more tune-able.
