Default Gaussian cluster antenna array data

Art may have spilled the beans above.

A feature in Ham pages is "Fact of the Day" from Tigertek Inc. Their
December 21, 2006 was "Virtually-Pure Horizontal Polarization". It is
copyrighted, but appeared immediately when I searched on "ham radio fact
of the day by Tigertek". The item rang a bell when it said that magnetic
dipoles that meet the requirements are sometimes inefficient so several
are clustered together and fed in-phase.

That does not mean that Art has no novelty, but it may or may not make a
good patent.
