Plus polarization doesn't count for much on skywave signals, only on
line of sight and tropo.  The much lower angle of radiation of the
vertical actually makes it a much more effective antenna than the
horizontal loop when they are at heights less than 1/2 wavelength.

But if your halo is so low as to put all the energy at high angles then
the
vertical would actually overcome polarization loss. Model the 2 on NEC
to
see.

hi,

with the vertical you have a 20db loss due to polarization 
right from the start but if the band is open a contact is a contact.

take a look at this 6m halo http://jonz.net/W3DHJ/6mh1.html
