Can't the end null of dipoles be mitigated by putting up the dipole in a
slight 120 degree V configuration. Although I have never seen this modeled
for HF, I understand this is how broadcast FM antennas are designed to get
an omni directional pattern. The same concept should work at HF as well.
Right?
