The Jointenna is a fairly simple set of tuned coils and capacitors. It may not have been set correctly or it may have gone out of tune by being dropped... etc.
The HDHR is a very flexible and useful tool as you can already see. When aiming an antenna, strength is important, but not as important as signal quality. You'll find that stable signal quality of 65% or better will allow you to get reliable recordings and few if any drop outs. If you maintain 100% signal quality over several days, you're doing extremely well.
Using a splitter in reverse works in a few cases, you'll know as soon as you look at the HDHR signal quality... fluctuating signal quality as reported by the HDHR would be a symptom of multipath, a very common problem for antenna combinations via reversed splitter.
