Remember, the high gain antenna will have a narrow beam,

mount it high

That sounds like a good idea, should I mount the antenna's at a 90o
angle relative to each other, with the receiving antenna mounted to
look in the vertical plane (I know where the base station is). And the
transmitting antenna to give as much horizontal plane coverage as
possible, angled down to the areas I wish to receive telephone
coverage? Can I expect good results?
