 RW> antenna 
I have a 75 Honda Civic with CB, scanner, UHF business, 
and 2 cell phone antennas. The scanner antenna is about 
12" from the K-40 CB antenna. (I consider the K-40 to 
be one of the best made.) I have no problems with the 
scanner. The UHF business is about 12" on the other 
side of the scanner antenna. It is a 5/8 over 5/8 Larsen, 
the radio has a 40 watt output. I do get some overloading 
on the 460MHz police frequencies when I transmit. 
The scanner antenna is an 18" whip, which makes it a 
quarter wave VHF and a 3/4 wave UHF (460MHz). All of 
the antennas are magnet mounts, infact, I understand 
that the K-40 was designed to be used with its magnet 
base for the best matching and standing wave. 
Scanner is a RS PRO-2004
For anyone interested, the 2 cell phone antennas are 
more then a wavelength apart so as not to interfer 
with each other. They are Larsen 5/8 over 1/4 wave 
closed coil with the "new" style base (looks like a 
large metal cone tapering up from the base load, no 
spring). If you don't know what your looking at, they 
all look like different height center load CB antennas.
