     Is it possible to construct a UHF antenna which is both circularly
polarized and omnidirectional in the horizontal plane?  Or are these
requirements mutually exclusive?  I'm looking for an antenna for 1.2GHz
with these properties.  Any ideas?  I'm trying to reduce the effect of
reflection nulls on my robot TV link.
