I think Mary is probably right about a radome, but maybe take a look
at one of the $20 "698-2700MHZ 3G 4G Directional Outdoor Cellular Yagi
Antenna N Female LTE 2020" antennas on Ebay. Log Periodic, rated
10dBi, 50 ohms, 50 watts. I guarantee you will want to replace the
weak mounting bracket, but that is just a few screws. I haven't
actually tested one with my NanoVNA, but at the end of 100ft of
LDF4-50 hardline, you probably wouldn't notice much SWR.
73, Doug Reed, N0NAS.
