A few issues. You haven't said if the quiet zone is the same 1.5 meter square. Assuming it is, I can't imagine using a horn, which is a constant aperture antenna with gain increasing with increasing frequency. You need a constant gain antenna, a log periodic. The antenna separation needs to

Just to clarify the position in the UK, although it was stated below that the nominal voltage is 415V, I am almost certain that the DECLARED VOLTAGE is 400V. I base this on the fact that domestic consumers were advised that the declared voltage changed from 240V to 230V, and 230 X 1.732 = 400V,
