Cell Phone Booster Antenna Dilemma

Howdy. I have this cell phone booster that came with a yagi directional antenna that works great when aimed directly at a tower.
I want to put it in my Chateau but I don’t have a ladder installed so climbing on the roof to set it at every stop would be a pain.
Should I get an Omni-directional antenna to use with it and mount that on the roof OR, get a 13ft tripod to mount the Yagi antenna and adjust it as needed?
Thanks in advance.

Last year I bought a stripped down Winegard batwing antenna just for the raise/lower/rotate assembly. I installed it on the left side of my coach near where my LTE Modem is mounted and installed a yagi antenna on it. When needed I can raise it and rotate it from inside the coach looking directly at my modem signal strength. Works great.
