In any case, we went round over this moving the load in the opposite
direction many months ago (nothing's changed since then either):
My model took no more than a minute to offer (in comparison to the
like data already offered in response to your other post):

The solenoid was dropped 10 inches between the two models.
Best gain = -15.33dBi @ 29 deg for this
Best gain = -9.52dBi @ 29 deg for the former

Lowering the coil led to nearly a 6dB drop - real world stuff and part
of the ham lore as you point out.

All this data pointed out then the current "peak" as has been
confirmed recently.
