I agree there are other losses but to prevent including losses that are
outside the E and H process change over such as ground reflections etc
is it not better to just accept The pure resistance only so there is no
need to characterize individual losses Once you go beyond the near
field it gets complicated as losses are created outside the EH
generation process.
Ii am not sure how the EZNEC thing functions but if you design the
array where all elements are driven you can then use the individual
element impedances to determine overall efficiency.i.e. power in versus
power out
Fortunately thats the way my program can operate

Does this mean you are ignoring any interaction between elements?
