The 7697 is fine... with a F/B ratio of about 20 dB, it will give you a fairly balanced set of signal levels.

Satellite system coax is reusable in an OTA antenna system, but many of the accessories such as matrix switches and diplexers will need to be removed to allow the OTA frequencies to pass through to the TVs. The TVs will need to be set to scan for 'air' or 'antenna', not 'cable' or 'auto'.
