I saw that statement as well, which noted a gain of -53 dBi. My NEC

Right. In general, horizontally polarized antennas only care about
height, while vertically polarized antennas care SOME about height, but

Thanks Jim, There are new hams that do not know how horizontal

always, higher is better up to 1/2 wavelength for low angle DX..
Lousy soil, like low conductivity sand, dry desert soil, can put the
