Can a scanner antenna be mounted close(r) to a CB antenna on a car. I would assume that during CB transmit there would be interference but can the two receive.
I have a 3' firestik CB already on my Corvette and I am looking at adding an external scanner antenna. Right now another firestik isn't out of the question.
The only reasonable mounting location is above the rear license plate. I am planning to drop in a BC796D mobile (with remote head) in the rear area of the car, so a FM-adapter won't work.
Also would a common ground plate cause issues.
Any thoughts or technical comments are appreciated.
