I'm busy fitting an antenna sharing box for my clearnavs and Flarm so I'll have a couple spare.


Can you hook up two of the cheaper antennas to your antenna sharing box and gain reliability via redundancy?

Sharing one antenna between multiple GPS reliant devices creates a single point of failure.


It also presents a voltage problem unless you use a dc blocker on one of the antennas.
