If the ideal lenght of an antenna is 1/4 Wave lenght then way are the Car Cellular antennas are longer then this ?

Just to start an argument, why is it that EZNEC shows zero gain
for a
vertical antenna in the horizontal plane? Whereas, all your
diagrams
show maximum gain along the horizontal.

EZNEC shows the same patterns/gains as in the plots I posted,
when its models are set up correctly.

========================================
The model for a simple vertical above ground is simple enough.
Perhaps YOUR way is incorrect if the pattern disagrees so strongly
with EZNEC.
