Quotation from your web site:
"While attempting to make long distance WiFi connections, it became apparent
that the 24 DB BBQ grill antennas did not perform very well over ten miles.
To over come this lack of performance, drawing on my HAM radio back ground,
bigger is better.  "
There was an article in QST  few months ago. It was about experiments with
long distance WiFi link. If  I remember correctly the major problem with
Wi-Fi link over such a distance is not the lack of the antenna gain but
rather delays that standard Wi-Fi hardware is not designed to account for.
IMHO 24db is plenty of gain for the purpose and stacking is not really
necessary.
