Concerning _Antenna_, Bruce Clark said to Troy H. Cheek in SCANRADIO:

Depending on which CB and (of course) which channel, anywhere from a 
"perfect" 1.1 to about 1.75 on the SWR meter.  Adding the "Y" splitter and 
extra cable doesn't seem to change the SWR.  Heck, I have to add an extra 
section of cable just to put the meter in the loop anyway.  That's without 
the scanner actually in the circuit, by the way, as I'm still chicken. :-) 
Funny thing is, with the "Y" wired in, the CB's self-reported transmit power 
is twice what it usually is.  No change according to the people I'm talking 
to, though.
