Thanks to all who replied on this - I'll get busy with all the suggestions.
One question - why does placing the antenna vertical with the reflector a
few feet off the ground change the result? This would actually put the
driven element lower (or about the same) at the same height it is when the
antenna is horizontal on the ladder (it's a 12 foot ladder).
