Hi Iain

You are displaying the far field radiation pattern, not the close-up
energy density...

ie the antenna and height above ground is very small compared to the
radiation pattern being displayed.

Cheers Bob

Aha, so it's just a matter of scale in the plot then? That's what was
confusing me. My mind was looking to directly compare the 3D pattern
generated with the antenna structure. It makes a bit more sense now.

Cheers,
