I don't think it would help unless it cut the antenna cable distance by a good bit.  Do you have a long antenna cable run?

12m is not an excessive run so while cutting the length may make a difference fitting a low loss cable suitable for 1090Mhz may give better results.  I suppose your option will however be more economical and be sufficient for your needs.
