You are simply comparing two verticals.


I don't see why you say that.


Hi Rick,

Given you did not specify that the "inverted vee" was completely flat
in the horizontal plane, it must be vertical to the degree it is not
flat.

The dominant polarization of an end-fire "inverted vee" is vertical.

Shy of a complete specification, you are comparing two verticals and
they are both lousy.
