The sad fact is, "professional" only means the guy does a job for a living. It doesn't mean he has a slightest clue of the underlying physics, be that the mechanical or electromagnetic principles involved in his chosen profession. Examples of lack of appreciation of both types of physics were evident. I especially liked the vertically-oriented circular (omni) folded dipole. What a concept! It appears that many TV towers in the UK use vertical polarization? Or maybe the pictures were taken in mountainous regions? Hey Jeroen, are you spreading FUD about OTA radio and TV? You've sent horror photos from the transmitting tower and the receiving antenna ends of the link. Next thing you'll be doing is sending horror stories about the effects of EM radiation from TV and radio towers on all living beings inbetween!
