ONLY one foot away from the earthen ground spike...

Michael,

Single Wire Vertical-Up-Leg 'connected' somewhere near
the Center {Off-Center} of a Horizontal Wire is basically a
* "T" Antenna

So he would only get "T" polarized signals right? No, no wait a minute,
he would get "L" polarized signals. This is so confusing. I know there
