they are both receiving antennas , so there is unlikely to be a problem with

Not necessarily true. The satellite dish antenna includes a low-noise
block convertor. Depending on the local oscilator frequency in the LNB,
there could be interference to some frequencies in the upper range of
the scanner.

The LO in the convertor would likely bein the GHz range so it's still
unlikely to cause interference.

11.250 GHZ for your standard North American DSS LNB.
Could be 5.150 and/or 10.750 if he was talking about a big old
mesh dish.

Doesn't seem like much chance of interference though.
