There is a major myth regarding NVIS that antennas must be low. This is 
totally false. The facts are that vertical antennas are terrible for 
NVIS, and that horizontal antennas work better up to nearly one-half 
wavelength above ground. This study ran in National Contest Journal 
several years ago.
