Was on a 2 meter discussion net recently where they all believed and professed that a J pole antenna is truly omnidirectional. This was about one fella having trouble talking to a far station that everybody else could talk to fine. However I think a Jay pole has 1 or 2 small deep nulls because of the matching section. I suggested rotating it a few degrees to see but got over-ruled. I use a Ringo so haven't run into this before. ???
