Well, yes it is... using the stick and shadow method the first thing you need 
is a LEVEL surface to track the tip of the shadow... So this begs the question 
that I hear on the contesting reflector all the time... How do we guarantee we 
have a level playing field??? That simple requirement seems to perpetually 
elude that group of operators.

I think everyone should try several alignment methods.. not just for 
their antenna, but just because it's fun and not particularly time 
consuming.  Especially the "stick and shadow" approaches.  It's easy 
to say, "mark when the shadow is shortest".. much tougher to actually do it.
