I developed an analysis techniques which correlates an antenna's
vertical response with the Angle-of-Arrival statistics published by
ARRL. Basically it gives you a "figure of merit" for an antenna at a
particular height on a specific path and frequency. It's a useful tool
for analysing the trade-offs at various heights. It shows very clearly
that an antenna CAN be too high.
QST will be publishing it next month or the one after. If you want a
"sneak preview" the same material in a different form is presented on my
web-site:
