+EScout Posted August 2, 2003 Share Posted August 2, 2003 Yes there is a problem in doing this. You would have to block the voltage from one unit and you would need a splitter that keeps the 50 Ohm impedance constant. And your signal would be reduced by over 3 dB on each. Why bother. Get another ampified antenna for $10 to 20 on ebay or swap meet. I got one for less than 10. I cut off the odd connector, and put on an SMA. I used a converter to BNC. Quote Link to comment
