Is there enough data to calculate the performance of the DLM antenna if it
were installed at a typical AM broadcast facility


Hi Jimmie,

Yes.

instead of at the naval
test site?


That's the point, the difference does not recover the DLM lost power
as there is no difference (and in fact, the Navy site probably
exhibits the DLM's best numbers, which do not rise to that of
conventional antennas).

The same has been demonstrated by the engineering report of the eh
antenna. In that situation too, the "inventors" didn't have the math
skills of a 4th grader to compare numbers exhibiting their poorer
showing in comparison to a low end performing commercial antenna.
