Bob, I don't have a clue what an agricultural version might mean unless you're referring to "homebrew."


Here is my contribution to this dilemma. I'm not sure I can explain this model in understandable words, but first I'll wait and see what Steve or Henry have to add.


I recently mentioned, in a post about a similar situation of a really high gain model I made. I think I was talking to DB regarding an A/P with/without the blue line. That model showed very high gain in Free Space and over Real Earth. I said at the time, "...this is was impossible."  I posted the model, but don't recall DB's or anybody else responsing.


IMO it is possible to show ridicules results if a body has a mind to puff-up their product or idea. I went way overboard in this model to show it can be done.


This model indicates the important dimensions at the bottom of the antenna view. The performance results are included, SWR bandwidth, pattern, and match all look similar to my posted model at 27.500 MHz which shows 3.63 dbi at 8* degrees.


Model was deleted.
