Interesting idea. Wonder why my avionics shop did not see this problem? I will see if I can find the old unit to verify if my memory is correct. It also worked poorly with its own antenna as a glarshield mount. That is why I tried the outside antennas...

My shop used a spliter/joiner for the two leads and connect the output to the unit. The previous owner had a panel mount traffic unit installed along with the two antennas. That was some years ago. It missed planes in front of me, below me, and above me. After visual verification, i removed it.

See above

I had an early dash mount traffic system (Monroy) with top and bottom outside antennas and found it to be useless. Put it away! Then went to G330 with mode S. A real improvement with only a few false positives (seeing my self) and no know false negatives except for when mode s was not available. Keep me put of harms way at least twice, but then I had a close call when mode S dropped out in the traffic pattern at a non tower airport. So I just got a full ADSB- in and out with the GTX330 and GTS 800 showing on my 530. Works really well so far - only about 10 hrs in the air to date. No false reports at all.
