A vertical is also omni directional but multiple verticals definitely have a
pattern.  I have modeled an inverted V yagi for someone in Aruba and the
patterned looked fine.  Many people build them by stretching a single boom
rope between two towers and tying the ends of the elements to something on
the ground.  Most are not installed super high and do not have a low
radiation angle.

##  The problem with a single  inverted vee is.... it radiates omni 
directional...off the ends
and the sides.   Unless the enclosed angle is like 150-180 degs, I cant see 
making a 
wire yagi from inverted vee els having much success.   Has anybody modeled
it ?
