Download tool not getting what I need

I am attempting to download the result table from https://www.fcc.gov/media/radio/haat-calculator.    The basic query string is composed of the field inputs as so: dlat=32&mlat=24&slat=00&ns=1&dlon=84&mlon=24&slon=00&ew=-1&nad=83&rcamsl=3&nradials=360&terdb=1 and is passed as a GET request.  The file that I get from the Download Tool is attached below and is just the HTML for the webpage itself, while the network response seen with the Google Inspect tools contains the desired table.  Is there a setting within the Download tool that will contain the same information as the Network Response from Google?

@StephenR The attached seems to be getting what you want when I run it. Let me know if it gives you any trouble. I did it 2 ways: 1) feed all those parameters in the url and 2) build the string out of fields.

EDIT: In looking at your yxdb, it looks like you're getting the base page (https://www.fcc.gov/media/radio/haat-calculator) so something must be going on with how you're building your query string (ie however you have the download tool setup, I don't think it's correctly passing all the lat long info.)

Thanks @patrick_digan, I'm not sure what I was putting in differently, as that's essentially what I was doing.  But it working now is the important part.
