[Elecraft] [AX1] Who has the AX1 antenna DX record?

[VE2PID]

... Obtained by NEC simulation for the AX1 installed at 4 feet above 
average ground: If you place yourself in front of the antenna and in the 
direction of the 13' horizontal counterpoise, the signal received will 
only be vertically polarized for all takeoff angles.

But if you test it in a different direction, the polarization becomes 
oblique. At 90 degrees from the direction of the counterpoise, the 
components of the signal received will be mostly horizontally polarized 
for a takeoff angle of 32 degrees or more and at lower angles, the 
vertical component is higher.

So depending of the azimuth, the main 'contributor' to the polarization 
will be the vertical or the counterpoise ...
