Hello group,

It is an "idée fixe" that a horizontal wire must radiate a horizontal polarized EM-wave.
A nice example of a mechanical horizontal construction that radiates a vertical polarized signal is the DDRR antenna.
So a large horizontal topload close to ground will in most cases improve the antenna efficiency (reduce the loss resistance ... footprint theory) but the radiated signal will be nevertheless mainly vertical polarized.

I agree with your observations. Some are being misled by computer modelling and antenna theory not applicable to the type of small LF antennas used by radio amateurs.
