Can a monopole produce "polarisation"?


PolariZation.

A vertical monopole is vertically polarized when viewed in isolation
of other reflectors at a distance of many, many wavelengths.


To be polarized must be the two poles (nodes). Long wire antennas have many
nodes and the directional pattern.
Is it right?
