Well, if i am not mistaken, in order to gain another 3 db, he would
have to setup another similar array. That would be twelve stepirs.
Then for another 3 db, he would have to add yet another twelve
stepirs.
The second three steppirs only gained him 3 db over the first three
and the second steppir only gained him 3 db over the first one.
so, what does that three db mean?

You have raised an interesting question - When do you reach the point of
diminishing returns?
Three Db equals a doubling of power or halving of power depending on
which way you are going.
