Okay guys, I've ordered four of them... Now my question is whether I should
stack them in the vertical or horizontal plane for the most efficiency... ? ? ?

Like most circuits I'd assume you'd need two in series to double the
voltage, but as they operate in the mircowave region the antenna placement
would be critical for proper phasing. Now would you use two in series on
transmit and then two in parallel for receive, or would they have to
increase the 60 cycle modulation to get more power?
