Did you include the 20 - 40 Ohms of Earth/Ohmic Loss in your Model?
Hi Dan,
Then it appears you are not measuring the radiation resistance + loss,
but rather its transform through the tuning of the
'large' screwdriver design
You might want to test your HP8405 against a 50Ohm load at the end of
the drive line, against known mismatched loads, and some measure of
the Q at each these nulls.
Do you choke the measurement drive line?
