Okay, if I put a splitter on my rooftop scanner antenna and connected it to two scanners at one time???

I know, probably would have problems, but just wondering what would really happen???

Personally, I'd say it depends on how strong the signal of what you want to listen to is. As long as it's good and strong you should probably be able to get away with it. Universal Radio sales some splitters if you want to do it the right way but they run upwards of $130.

Shouldn't be any real problem at all as you are only receiving as opposed to transmitting.
