Does anyone know if using 2 of the 15 db flat panels at a 45 degree plus/minus performs better than a single MIMO antenna? Ive searched and havnt found any answers to this question.

This is all very specific to your location, distance from the tower, weather, etc, etc. A lot of factors.

The only way to know for sure is to try it. I would suggest maybe trying the MIMO antenna first if space/ aesthetics is a concern.

Thanks. I have at least 5 towers 2 to 5 miles away, rural wooded area,. With 2 15dbi flat panels do work well alot of the time but I do get bounced around alot. Ill probably just order one and see.

Only way to know for sure is try it. If you have a lot of towers nearby, it might help to have the highest gain antennas and point them at the best tower in your area for best performance.
