Dan,

If you have the time, you might want to try plotting resonant frequency vs height for a linear half-wave dipole and comparing it with one bent into an almost closed square, as in the "cobweb" design. You'll find the cobweb shape is _much_ less dependent on height.

So it seems that more loading results in less change in resonant frequency as 
the height above ground is varied.
