Michael,
        You might try directing your question to the antenna reflector.
Plenty of people there who can help you with your question.

        In the meantime, consider using a couple of cheepo FM band
antennas, which are usually truncated log-periodic arrays.  With
a pair of these (one for transmit, one for receive), you can rotate
the one along it's logitudinal axis, which will take you through
horizontal and vertical polarization.  Because of ground reflections,
etc., you won't get an absolute null one way or the other, but it
would be an effective demonstration and requires little in the way
of preparation.
