On the other hand --depending on the angle and orientation-- there is *some* vertically polarized RF radiated from an inverted vee. Especially off the ends.

I just posted this about polarization on 160: ham.stackexchange.com/a/8895/8717 I wondered about the inverted-L. My guess is that it had a poor ground system. 73, Mike www.w0btu.com On Jul 17, 2017 9:22 AM, "K1FZ-Bruce" <[email protected]> wrote: There are always exceptions. A few years ago there was someone that had a inverted V that worked well for DX. It was found that it was feed with open wire feeders that acted as a vertical antenna with top loading. If your antenna works well be happy. Ham radio is a great hobby. _________________ Topband Reflector Archives - http://www.contesting.com/_topband
