<<Antennas placed optimally, reference a slope in the direction
of the DX, enjoy another gain factor created by the downslope condition

proximity to the drop off to have the most effect.  This was covered in one 
of the ARRL Antenna Compendium volumes, and other
antenna publications of recent years. >>

The Moxon book published by RSGB and distributed by ARRL (HF Antennas for all
