I have a 4G X RV too and I was confused about the cradle statement. I donโt have one.
Mine has an interior antenna which Wilson states is good for 4-10โ. Mine works better than that.
I did speed tests close and far away and results were consistently the same.
The trucker version has a cradle.

the more gain you need, the closer the phone needs to be to the inside antenna.
The more gain you need the higher in the air you want the outside antenna.
The more gain you need the more directional you want the outside antenna.
We have the Weboost RV setup. in areas where the signal level w/o the booster is in the -100 to -110db range a omni outside antenna and being within a few feet of the internal antenna.
When the singnal level is in the -110 db or lower, the phone needs to be in the cradle antenna and the outside antenna sometimes needs to be a yagi.
And in any case, the amount of boost you get depends on how close you are to the inside antenna. If all you need is voice phone service or messaging, the lower your signal can be. If you want internet you want as strong a signal as possible which is best achieved by the phone being in the inside antenna cradle.
As an example this last weekend I was in a place with a unboosted signal level of -110db, voice but very marginal internet. with the weboost on and the internal antenna about 4 ft away the signal was near -100db, not bad, very good for voice marginal for internet. With the phone in the cradle signal level was -80db, very very good for internet.
I've been studying the WeBoost 4G-x RV, thinking about upgrading from my Wilson Sleek. When you mention about putting the phone in the cradle in your Weboost system, I'm left confused, as in studying online what is included with the Weboost 4G-x RV package, I don't see a cradle. Is the 4G-x RV the model you have, or do you have a different model?

Are there any of these setups that don't cost $500?
