Hi, just looking at how the 4G interference potential can affect those people who use caravans. Currently there are several different aerials fitted to caravans, Directional as per the Status 550 and numerous Omni-directional aerials. Going forward would you recommend Directional rather than Omni-directional? What about the coax cable running through the caravan, would this need to be replaced if poor quality cable has been installed by the manufacturer?

Would it be possible to receive signals from a horizontal main transmitter even if you are located in a vertical area using a Wideband aerial with suitable range? I mean, are there certain areas where pointing at a vertical transmitter is the only option? In Nottingham we have the Nottingham transmitter which is vertical and Waltham which is horizontal but because Waltham is so powerful I don't understand why the Nottingham transmitter is required. How much of the country now relies on these vertical transmitters?

Thanks Dave. So, my next question is regarding the need to have an aerial which can be positioned horizontally and vertically for instance when touring in a caravan? Most seem to only have the aerial set to horizontal in all sorts of different locations.
