OK. I am new to Radio reference. I love monitoring my scanners and have 4 of them. I have read many comments/posts here about having 1 scanner with two antennas. Everyone seems to disagree on if this is a good thing (unless I just don't understand).
What I would like to do is hook 2 antennas, one for 150-158 MHZ and one for 450-470 MHz, to one scanner in my truck.
Are there a multitude of problems with matching the antennas and coax? Will a bandpass filter work?
I am not an antenna guru, but i thought this would work if there aren't matching problems.
Without going in to a scientific explanation, am I able to do this or not? I'm still confused. I WILL NOT be transmitting on theses antennas. RECEIVE ONLY!
There is a lot of talent here. Hoping to find an answer.
Thanks for your input.
