In the Help file for YT v2.0 (probably not the very latest version, but
anyway...), N6BV states,

"YT's default values are a ground conductivity of
5 mS/m and a dielectric constant of 13, typical of
average to better-than-average ground. You will
find that changing the ground constants for a
horizontally polarized antenna like that used in YT
changes the elevation pattern only a small amount."

Why? Dunno...
