I don't recommend the Ringo Ranger for any duplex application. The gain is overstated & they have feedline decoupling issues. Even if you use the "II" version with decoupling radials, you'd have to use RG-214 or hardline between the main antenna & radials in order to avoid desense caused by eventual oxidation of the shield braid.
