Stridsberg is the consumer grade gear most scanner enthusiasts use.

That's an active splitter for $185. Probably a good unit. I think DxAce
uses one.

If you are going to use a splitter, you might as well go active. In
either case (active or passive), you are going to get a bit more noise,
but the active design should have better isolation.

For a "Combo" Antenna Splitter and {Active} Pre-Amplifier
when you want to use One Antenna with Two Receivers :
Then consider a Shortwave Receiver Antenna Tuner /
Pre-Amplifier that has a built-in Antenna Switch for
use with Two Radios and Two Antennas. The MFJ-959
Pre-Amplifier and Antenna Tuner comes to mind.

More money, more complicated but the amplification can mitigate loss of
signal and provide more isolation between outputs.
