My QTH is south of San Francisco. I've aligned both of my rotators to 
true north using the shadow cast by the towers. On a bright day, summer 
or winter, shadows are clearly defined. Agreed that the towers are not 
narrow, but neither are the patterns of the 3-el Yagis on top, and they 
are carefully plumbed to vertical. :)
