The amplitude and phase of a field after ground reflection depends

of course also depends on ground conductivity and permittivity,
frequency, and angle. The equations are simple, and can be found in
Kraus and other references. Those equations are used by NEC for
determination of the far field pattern.

Yes! But what's the ball park, rule-of-thumb value in dB ?

I dunno. What's the ball park, rule-of-thumb value of a resistor in ohms?
