One thing I can say is our transmissions will be vertically polarised. This is because our project is not only about transmitting a radio signal but also concerned with heritage. All the early high power BBC Band I stations were vertically polarised and the vertical H and X aerials came to be seen as (for want of a better word) "iconic".

Was that originally done for signal propagation reasons (which is odd as horizontal polarisation was chosen for VHF radio), or because horizontal 41- 45 MHz antennas were a bit unwieldy?
