I am not close enough to monitor a public service 800 trunked system with a discone. Tried it and it didn't work well at all for 800. I have a 8 element yagi for 800 I will use, but that leaves vhf out. It looks like I will have to use two seperate antennas to one scanner(996). Can I get by with a T connector at the scanner or do I have to provide some isolation one antenna feedline to the other? Maybe a duplexer is in order. Also any thoughts as to a good omni 800 antenna for outside installation? Maybe with a good mono band (800) omni I can get by without the yagi if I get it up high enough. I am running 9913F cable.
