Remember vertical mounting places the nulls in the vertical axis, so there is no figure 8 side null. This can either hurt or help. What does this mean? a folded dipole accepts signals perpendicular to the length of the antenna, and rejects signals that come parallel to the length.
When horizontal, if it is positioned with the broad side facing N-S, it will reject stations from E-W. If you have multipath problems, in many cases the horizontal antenna can be positioned to reject the multipath bounce. Not true of a vertical dipole. A log periodic (many people incorectly call a YAGI) rejects all but the front, making it excellent for multipath problems when optimized with a rotor.
