| You really dont see the difference MOST of the time......actually a 
| CIRCULAR polarized antenna works best in skip or DX mode....because any 
| shifts in polarization is ignored by the CP antenna....a Linear antenna 
| may "see" a reflection shift from one pol to another and yes, you could 
| end up with a deep fade then....but with a CP antenna, you only lose 3db 
| or so all the time...and have less fades due to pol shifts.
