Maybe that where I'm just being old fashion.
One unit to do the job.

See how you go, head down to any electrical and as them for a double antenna connector or a Y adapter for a car audio antenna and go for it.

You will need a powered splitter river, because those car feed antennas are a tricky 'impedence something or other' based setup, and when you load two devices on it, (albeit only one working at any given time) you'll mess that setup up. Get that splitter doovy and I'd say you'll be fine.

Or.. stick to the one unit

hahaha

Just stirring.

Eh? There is about as much science in a telescopic car antenna as my cats bung hole.
If its just to flick on every once in a while River, just hang a piece of scrap wire out the antenna socket of the stock radio and hang it behind the dash. That will pick up anything while the car is just sitting stationary.

If you are willing to install a second antenna you can buy flat panel antenna's that hide in your roof lining or other of your choosing.
Companies such as Harada spring to mind, however, the harada website is a PITA to navigate (japanese)
