Hi all,

Anyone know what effect the polarization has on 10 meter signals?  I'm 
thinking of making a 10 meter dipole or j-pole and wondering if I want it to 
be horizontal or vertical.  Much of my 10 meter operation will be ground 
wave; within 20 miles or so.  Otherwise not looking for DX, just stateside 
stuff.

By the way, can anyone describe a j-pole?  I have several descriptions but I 
just don't understand them.  I must be a little dense.

Thanks, anybody.
