Hi.
I wonder what is meant by "better" being horizontal? Could it be interference effects, range, or what.
Many moons ago I used to take a Philips T-Vette in my Skoda 1000MB on my travels and I could receive Channel 3 from Kirk 'O Shotts in conditions that were far from ideal and at distances way out of the service area. Whether I'd get any noticeable change if the transmission was on the opposite polarisation is debatable, vertical seemed to work well on Band 1 though.
