Been running a channel 10 AM-60-550 And channel 12 AM-60-860 for a few years now. Both have custom length dipoles on RG-6 runs on the 3rd floor attic space of a residential house. On a batt set such as my little Sony from the 90s it is incredible how fine the propagation is. Within the house, all sets, from a 1950s Regal/RCA to a 2004 sony wega will pick up the signal with very little antennae.
I use the -860 BT to momentarily broadcast channel 34 UHF with a crude bowtie to test UHF reception of newly bought sets.
I find that the 'lead dress' of your BT antenna is crucial. For me the trick was to route all power and a/v cords away from the antenna run.
