80M is a bit lower than I expect, but not by much:referring to dBmax values. It
probably picks up a dB or more at the high end of 75M.

It doesn't mean much to discuss 'average gain' values unless its an isotropic
or (within a certain elevation range) an omni antenna. Sometimes vertical
dipoles are described as having an 'average gain', but I haven't seen that
used for horizontal ones:-)

The pattern is not bidirectional on the higher bands BTW... ar least that's
what intuition tells me...
