So using these figure in real terms:
Halfwave dipole with 100 watts to the antenna the,
Effective Radiated Power = 100.4 watts
The A99 with 100 watts to the antenna, the ERP = 93.4 watts

So using these numbers as totally correct, the A99 has a 7% LOSS over a dipole under equal conditions....???
Having compared side by side with the good OLD Ringo antenna, I tend to believe they are reasonably correct IMHO
