You're the one that said "horizontal waves travel farther" and that's "why we use a cap hat".


So by your definition you believe that putting a cap hat on a vertical antenna (which has vertical polarization) changes the radiated signal into "horizontal waves", which would be horizontal polarization.  Apparently you don't understand the difference between polarization and radiation angle.  I'm not twisting anything, but you sure are. 


And a cap hat changes none of those things you're talking about.
