Default Magloop Height?

Error correction :

They need be rotateable only through about 90 (ninety) degrees.

This is to ensure an antenna can always be directed towards maximum
signal even when there are 3 or 4 plastic guy ropes from the top of
the loop which can prevent a complete rotation


Rotation is probably not an option here as it has to sit on an apartment
balcony. There will be some ground clutter, too, from the balcony railing.
But that may not be as debilitating as it looks because the whole business
is 10m up and any currents in the aluminum balcony railing tend to add to
the radiation, though the pattern can become moot.
