I'm not saying it is good to have a low antenna, I'm just saying a low dipole is efficient in terms of how much power it radiates, but is is just in the wrong direction.

My particular interest right now is a good antenna for the new 475 khz band that is coming. I have a 1000 foot dipole at 50 feet and it shows an excellent load at 475 khz. My belief is this antenna will be more efficient even at a 20 degree takeoff angle than a 50 foot vertical that has a very large and inefficient loading coil and radials.

I've posted the link to my work several times.
