"---I was commenting on your assertion that the horizontal polarization is "shorted out" at a conductive surfacce." Richard Clark`s description may be indelicate but as I recall, Terman says rouighly the same in several instances. Wish I had a copy at hand. Terman says that a horizontally polarized low-angle wave suffers a phase reversal upon reflection and as the difference in path length is negligible between incident and reflected waves at low angles, the waves being of opposite phase add to zero.
