No. They are higher gain. But they have a different pattern. 1 degree less elevation. Wider azimuth.

Complete shit. Garbage. Just awful. I've got several sites where the 180* actually has more gain than front facing (ie I hear east better than west while being a mile or two west of the tower). The hardware is a joke, but workable. Forward 5 GHz gain seems about right. 2 GHz gain may be lacking, though I suspect it isn't.
