Yes you can Test the ANT-5006 and ANT-5011 with a combiner.

However the 2 antennas when connected together will have out of phase antenna cross talk that will most likely make reception worse with no way to adjust them to make reception better.

Also the power supply and amplifier situation of the 2 antennas will most likely cause problems.

Aim the DB8e antenna at about 117 degree magnetic compass direction.

Can Test reception without and with a , Winegard , LNA-100 Boost antenna amplifier.
