Why do we always mount our HF Yagi's in the horizontal plane?
Antenna maintenance would be much easier for those of us with tilt
over towers if the antenna were in the horizontal plane when down for
maintenance!

vertical yagi's work fine... if you can get them far enough away from the
conductive tower and mast either vertically or horizontally... though i do
believe you get better ground reflection from the horizontal polarization.
There is a new product that allows yagis mounted horizontally to
automatically pivot as you tilt over a tower so they stay level with the
ground.
