So I'm going to try an 8 bay TV antenna for n71...

I know it may sound crazy, but n71 was originally an upper band UHF television signal. An 8 bay antenna has around a 15 degree signal capture, roughly 16db of gain @600mhz, it's design naturally rejects noise and out-of-phase signals and I already have one on my roof pointed in the right direction not being used. I plan on making an impedance-matching transformer and wire it into a "Y" connector to two of the antenna connections on the trashcan. Has anyone else tried this?
