Graphs a 3 dimensional logarithmic of a function named F(Theta,Phi), theta the elevation angle and phi the rotational angle. Converts to Cartesian coordinates and plots a surface plot with color pattern radiating from the origin.

Due my massive use of the community to generate this first time use of Matlab as a thanks I'm publishing my results. The function is currently one to plot a rectangular planar array. Use ArrayCalc2-3 from this community instead as a better tool for Planar Antenna arrays. This project was only intended as a proof of formula.

Thank you to all the forum guru's for answering user's questions I would have been able to finish without your code tidbits. I apologize for not including your names for whose posts I relied heavily upon when stuck.
