[Antennas] Effective ways to use lots of land, trees and wire?

de WB2CPN,
The only way to get gain (?) in all horizontal directions is to
lower the main radiation angle in all directions. If you can easily
flatten the top of the radiation patern, patent it. Years ago we
used to say, "A vertical antenna: One that radiates equally poor
in all directions." A switchable wire-array which someone
mentioned is a good idea if you have a tuner that can handle
some of the weird J-factors you could encounter.
