I'll take some pics tomorrow and begin posting them.

Here's a pic of my home-made mimo yagi cell antenna at about 20 feet. The antenna's are at a 45-degree angle from each other.

I bolted and welded the heavy duty aluminum bracket to last.

How are you combining the signals from the two antennas or does your booster R/T have two ports? I am not real familiar with the MIMO usage, but I understand you get increased bandwidth with 4G and 5G signals with the cross polarization and the 45 degree offsets give you good cross antenna isolation.

You should do a comparison with a single vertically polarized yagi and this MIMO in a fringe area and see what your throughput is. I am very interested assuming I don't need a new booster with two ports.

My weBoost unit has one cable to the antenna and with my Mofi 4500 I can connect two cables for two antenna's. There's lots of info on YouTube on MIMO antenna's.

The antenna I ordered today is a mimo antenna, same brand as yours but with two cables and two antenna's inside. I'll be doing lots of testing next week.

I won't spend a cold night while camping, so I installed two propane heaters.

That’s what I have. I ordered mine from eBay.

I just ordered Starlink for RV, but I haven't received it yet. Is yours Rv or residential with portability? Any trouble in setting up or using it? Thanks!
