I have a solution for you, but when I checked with Yakima my contact told me the Rocket Box Pro 14 # Y07192 is a confirmed fit for your 2012 Honda CR-V. I checked the spacing for your antenna with the 14 and it appears it will impact per your measurement provided.

A comparable rooftop box from Thule that is similar sized and priced to the Yakima rooftop box is the Pulse Medium # TH614. I have linked a video for you to check out. This cargo box can hold 14 cubic feet of cargo and fits crossbar spreads of 23-5/8 through 35-3/8 inches. It will also have a front clearance of 42-5/8 inches which will work great for your antenna on your CR-V EX.

I have linked the above mentioned products to this page for your viewing and purchasing convenience.
