Good reading, gives radiation patterns for dipoles and the best height for vswr match.

Depending on what you are wanting to do, height is a big factor, higher is not always better, look at the radiation patterns of the dipoles at different heights and you will notice deep nulls, that is what you want to avoid is the nulls.
Believe it or not 1/2 wl agl works awesome.
