If there's nothing but coax between the antenna and the scanner, this will 
work fine.

On the other hand, make sure there aren't any signal splitters between the 
antenna and radio.  Such splitters are designed to work only over the 
television signal frequency range, which is considerably narrower than the 
R2's receive range.  If you happen to be listening to VHF FM, or TV audio 
signals, this is fine, but signals below or substantially above the TV 
broadcast range may not make it through the splitter.
