ploting issues in program

hi every one!

can you please help me to fix these polar plot in db's
so that the center is at the minimun negative number in voltagedb
about [-50]
and the maximun is at zero and how can i see values on the axis like
showing that the axes start at -50 -40 -30 .....and end at zero
than you
here is the program

You posted this question several times now and got no response that you
liked enough to abstain from reposting.

Now your options are:

- Try another forum (the matplotlib mailing list would be a good candidate)
- Show some initiative: add 50 to the dB values and be done
here is the program

The better the advice the worse it's wasted ...

I might ask just exactly what is being plotted to give those answers. It
sounds like field strength, but I am having difficulty envisaging a
field that is weakest at its center - is this some sort of alternative
universe you are plotting :-) ?

regards
Steve

Just guessing, does plotting the following rectangular coords give you
any insight?
Seems to be a rough figure of eight.

I believe the OP is trying to plot a radiation pattern like Figure 4.5 on
the following page:

Right, it's a relative field strength plot. Now I see. Thanks.
