Food for thought.

If the above is true then why is it that a simple ground mounted vertical can and often does beat a horizontal yagi at height on long haul DX? This has been noticed and repeated many times on the amateur bands? There are exceptions to almost every rule and simply stating that horizontal is better for TX'ing than vertical is one of those blanket statements that has many exceptions.
