Dave,
Nice set of videos on youtube!
If you get a chance, you should also do a video demonstrating Standing Waves
(on lower freqs) along a noisy line.

My answer, Kurt, would be that there is no one answer to the polarity
question.
Depending on the noise source, it could be anything.
A brief 19-second video shows an example of why 'changeable' polarity is
important when tracking down noise sources:

Agreed on using a vertical (2m or 70cm mode AM) on a car to get close to the
poles, and then a handheld Yagi (again 2m or 70cm, with HT in AM mode) to
make sure you narrow down the exact pole(s).

Which would be better for general purpose long-range (relatively) sniffing?
Yagi? Horizontal or vertical?
Helical?
Cross polarized Yagis?
I'm getting an idea for a sniffer on a vehicle, pointing upwards, camera in
line with the antenna...
Kurt
