Purely an academic question. I have an ever so slight sag in my boom. Maybe
2 inches at most on a 17 foot boom.

I sure don't notice any problem but I was just curious if the elements not
being exactly in the same plane had a measurable effect on pattern or gain?

I'm betting it isn't worth the effort to rig a guy system for the boom.
