I have a 4G X RV too and I was confused about the cradle statement. I don’t have one.
Mine has an interior antenna which Wilson states is good for 4-10’. 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.
If your in a marginal signal area what you describe is what I've seen as well. It's when there is NO unboosted signal or unboosted signal near -115/-120 db that the cradle works but inside antenna becomes really marginal, at least for me. I also have the 4G X RV. I bought a cradle for my system. It's wired through a splitter one side goes to the cradle the other side goes to the inside antenna. yes I lose 3db gain, but is more versatile.
Often times I put my hotspot in the cradle for internet etc. and let the phones use the inside antenna.
