Yes. Your comments are in line with what Hawker wrote. That mix poln is
helpful for mobile reception using V rods, etc. But that it makes
multipath more problematic for fixed reception using H plane antennas.

The statistical trade off seems to be: less likely to get flutter/fades
but with the cost of higher amounts of multipath.

This was mentioned recently on uk.tech.broadcast as regards using a
vertical FM aerial to get a better DAB signal.
