    Depends what you call high gain.

    The Simpson is a significant amount of dune travel IE the vehicle is pointing at the moon or the dirt 50 metres in front therefore so is your antenna radiation lobe.

    I would def not recommend anything higher than 6 dBi and 4.5 dBi would be close to ideal

    8 or 9 dBi co-linears etc would be fairly problematic and cause comms issues unless you are both on top of a dune

    Dolphins are so smart that within a few weeks of captivity, they can train people to stand on the very edge of the pool and throw them fish.
