I would appreciate that you explain better what you are proposing.
Exactly how do you suggest I produce the gain or field pattern? My
plan is to switch in "real-time" between the antenna under test and
the reference antenna, thus eliminating as much as possible the
effects of QSB, conditions, etc.

I may be missing something here, but why not produce a
gain or field pattern for each antenna on the same
signal, random or otherwise and overlay each pattern
and put in memory? ( cheap laptop and use a loop antenna
for reference )

In one of the early antenna compendiums ( ARRLL)
a Peter Dobbs of the U.K. supplies all the info
and program to get you onboard quickly and inexpensively.
