Hi so as I've been preparing to do the H external antenna mod on mine ie getting all that I need, making sure I don't need to or want to anything else while I have it all broken down etc. but as I've seen so many with the H do the Mod where they only put a very small antenna on each side, I have also recently seen a T shaped "super" diople antenna on one of the sites that builds the various long range antenna kits I believe it was rexuav.com but cannot seem to find it listed anywhere anymore. Those various items that I've seen have made me curious as to whether or not I can bring my antenna cable out of my H then down just a bit on each landing gear leg about 2-3" then either install one of those T Shaped Super Diople Antennas that I mentioned above or I was also thinking that instead of doing that because the T Diople antennas were a bit expensive when I last saw them, I was thinking after bringing the cable down the leg a bit to a T antenna connector & after that point connect a 7dBi Gain antenna onto each side of the T connector & so after I finish my H would have 4 total external antennas being that 2 are on each leg one point forward & the other pointing towards the rear. Or one more scenario I could try if it may be more beneficial to me for better range from the antennas if I instead of connecting the antennas directly to the T adapter making them point straight forward & straight backward perfectly level horizontally, thinking of adding 45 Degree angled adapter to each side of the T adapter making so that the forward facing antennas on each side/leg would be facing down at a 45 degree angle & the rear antennas on each side/leg would then be facing downward on a 45 degree angle toward the ground. Then in a either of the scenarios that i choose to go with for my antennas, when I retract my landing gear the antennas would almost make an X shape if the antennas where connected with the 45 degree angle adapters.
My biggest question/concern with doing my external antenna mod on my H is whether I'd be gaining anything more by extending my antenna cable down the legs to connect to two antennas on each side then, or would I experience basically the same signal boost/amplification if I only stayed with doing the normal external antenna mod on my H that most others do where the antenna is just relocated to the outside of the body and then small antennas connected to each external antenna adapter?
