Here is a site for examples of capture areas of antennas

Are you recommending it?

Is the following statement from the page correct?

"Note: Antenna B has only half the capture area of antenna A and is
therefore able to "catch" only 50 percent of the electromagnetic
field; e.g., 50mV, compared to 100 mV/50 Ohms. This means 6dB less
gain for antenna B in comparison to antenna A."
