Sorry you cannot piggy back or combine 2 antenna the signal will get destroyed as antennas are 70 ohms and when you connect 2 it will drop to 35 ohms and cause 100% signal loss.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Combining two antennas may or may not show an improvement. When combing you will have a 3.5dB insertion loss from the reversed splitter as well as the possibility of phase cancellation. Phase cancellaton is where both antennas receive he same signal out of phase. There really is no way to know if it will have a positive or negative effect unless you try it. Best Regards!
