Guys,
 
I want to mount the Elk dual band 144/440 antenna up on my 85' tower.
 
Can I get away with a fixed elevation of about 30 degrees and horizontal polarization?
 
I recognize that this is a compromise, but I'd like to avoid the additional complexity of dealing with an azimuth rotor.
 
Any thoughts appreciated.
