Such an outcome stands to reason, the yagi cannot see all sources, the
dipole can. If I illuminated the yagi from each source in turn (all
others off) and correlated the response to the source's angle, the
composite would simply reveal the characteristic yagi response lobe
and the sum of those powers MUST fall below the total power available
to the dipole.


Yet if you provide the same power to the dipole and the Yagi and
integrate the total field from each, the total field powers from both
are the same.

So is reciprocity invalid?
