I should have said something like "approaches" the horizontal

Apologies for the mis-speak

I am also going to have to look into the theory of how much VHF
diffracts and bends so one can choose the right angles grin..

Cheers Bob

Pending some clarification from one of you (or anyone else) as to what is
meant here, I point out that h-pol radiation directed toward an elevation
at/near ground level has been, and still is the basis for very successful
commercial broadcasting by FM and TV stations.
