The TOA is determined mostly by where the current node is and how high it is above the earth. On all 1/4 wavelength antennas, including shortened 1/4 wavelength antennas like these the feed point is where the current node is. Because of this, if these antennas are mounted on identical mounts, they will have the same take off angle. If one is mounted higher than the other, the higher antenna will have the lower TOA.
