That exactly proves my point about takeoff angle being an inappropriate
measure. If you study the plots of my NEC models, it becomes clear that
raising the antenna does much more than moving the peak of radiation
lower -- it also increases the field strength at most angles below
that. See my family of plots of field strength vs height of horizontal
antennas.

Everyone "knows" that this can't possibly work because it radiates
