The similar thing applies to laser beams and antennas in general: In close range, intensity of the radiated beam follows different rules (sometimes 1/r)..

(......lost the knowledge part from here...:{)
So from the above quote; the inverse laws dont work at more than around one AU . Scaled down, as in your quote ( radiated beam), we cant confirm a FTL phase velocity unless the test bed is HUGE..... Am I thinking right there?
I am trying to grasp all of this, so excuse my ignorance, BUT I find this really interesting.
BTW I never 'elized' your 10" Dob!!!!!
