As you can see from the video changing the polarization of your antenna drastically reduces you RF signature. I do believe it’s about an 12 DB losss or somewhere close to that. Since 99% of VHF/UHF radios are vertically polarized it only makes sense to run ours horizontally when the time comes.
Nice! I also keep a stubby antenna handy as well. RF mitigation is a valuable skill that doesn’t get enough attention.
