Hola Jorge,

This old post might answer some of your questions.

Also here's a truly wonderful solution for those who have many RX antennas
and want total flexibility of assigning any combination of antennas to the
RX ANT and AUX ports in diversity:

Regarding splitters, the only downside is their 3 dB loss, which is not an
issue on most bands.
