Hmmmmm!

Then how do you account for the broad rejection from
"EE"s of Gaussian antennas that comply and are
supported by electromagnetic theory as embodied
in Maxwells equations ?
As you put your address as the "Naval Research
Laboratory" where would you place the responsability
for rejection?
Personaly I would place it in the syndrome of

" Not invented at my place"

Well, you're entitled to your opinion, Art. I have no experience with
"Gaussian antennas." If these antennas have been the subject of, say IEEE
papers my guess would be that they are worthy of investigation. In the
case of the CFA, cold fusion or anything else for that matter,
extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. IOW anyone can
believe anything they want. The problem is in getting others to believe
it. And when it comes to skeptical scientists/physicists/engineers that
ain't easy. However, the truth more often than not emerges at some
point. Sincerely,
