Ya know, I just emailed Firestik concerning this, as I thought it might be a
problem also, here is what they (promptly)responded with:
Proximity to other verticle objects will have some effect on the antenna
pattern.
I would recommend that you keep at least 12" between the tow antennas ... or
do
like I did on my truck ... put it on the drivers side. This keeps it out of
road
side tree branches and if you ever pull a trailer (I do) it will keep your
signal
from being blocked to on-coming traffic once the pass you in opposite
direction.
So looks like its going to be mounted on the driver's side now!
