Man made noise is vertically polarized, so mounting horizontal takes advantage of this as well as having a better take off angle than vertical. An omni antenna is best for local talk, doesn't make sense to keep moving the beam to get the people around you. If your rotor is big enough, you can mount the omni over the horizontal beam. That's the best of both worlds.
