One potential problem might be intermodulation with local radio
stations. Those back to back diodes can mix all sorts of things and the
results fall into the channel you're trying to monitor on the scanner. I
say give it a shot, mindful that you may get additional unwanted signals
and might have to yank it out. Jim
