Default The ultimate tilted monopole

It appears to be believed, by one or two who frequent this NG, that a tilted
monopole provides more gain and somehow 'better' EM radiation than a
vertical one. *However, we've seen that tilting a vertical monopole distorts
its radiation pattern so it is no longer truly omni-directional in the
horizontal plane. *Then why not create an array of such tilted monopoles,
all tilted in different directions, to restore the omni-directional pattern.
