I've nearly always had a 6 dBi gain antenna and travel the remote beaches, dunes of NW/W Tassie and happy with the results. I'm also no expert !! but do believe it matters where it's mounted

Stupid question ET. Could you run both a hi and low or mid DB antenna together? So you got the best of both? I'm assuming not as if you could everyone would do it....Quote:

If the antennas aren't co-phased but still coupled the radiation patterns would be very unpredictable and vary with frequency versus distance apart if they are on the same plane.
Thought it wouldn't work. Just didn't know why...
Thanks.
run 2 antennas....just use one of these ...instead of a triple , get a double one ...switch over when you want to..there is another connection on the other side that goes to the set
