I have a WeBoost Drive 4g-x which I get what I would consider poor performance from. I have been mounting the mini mag mount antenna on a 4"x4" steel plate atop an extended golf ball retriever that gets it about 5' above the roof. Now, I also want to have a mag mount ham antenna on the roof. So, I'm thinking about two possible improvements:
1) using dicor, attach an 18" steel panel to the roof for these to ride on so I can leave them always up. This would maybe improve the cell booster performance with a larger ground plane?
Or:
2) mount a similar plate to the top of the retractable batwing tv antenna that we don't use to get them even higher up. Maybe with this option I would also upgrade to the better omnidirectional Weboost receiving antenna 304421 and their better interior antenna.
Looking for opinions, and answer 1 question: does the Weboost exterior antenna need to be separated from the ham antenna any certain distance?
