[TowerTalk] Inverted Vees

[John Langdon]

The current is highest nearest the center feed point, so INHO, all else being equal you want that as high as you can get it. Worst performance would be ends up high and center down close to the ground.

Quick question:  When mounting an inverted Vee antenna,  one end can end at a higher level (perhaps in a tree and the other end is lower) obviously the antenna will perform to some degree better.  However, is there any advantage to having the "hot end" higher and the "ground end" lower, compared to the opposite (ground end higher and hot end lower)?
