MY EXPERENCE WITH RINGO RANGERS, EVEN THE LATEST VERSIONS, IS THAT ONE
RINGO RANGER HAS A GAIN OF 3DB.  

OVER A DUMMY LOAD!! THAT IS.

Though claims that the RINGO has 3dB gain over a dummy load are amusing,
I was hoping for serious (showing or characterized by deep thought) replys.
Indeed if this is a serious reply then you need to have someone help you
tune (or even assemble) the RINGO before you measure its radiation pattern.
-good luck
