TV Antenna and Reception

Thank you for your replies. What I am thinking about is mounting the pole to a fence post, which I am not sure which one yet. When my house was wired with coax, all of the coax comes from wall jacks out to the side of the house. Currently it goes into a splitter for our former cable tv service (internet is still in use). So, the cables are nicely on the outside of the house already, but running new cable would be tricky. Reason I don't want to use a rotator is running the wire into the house.

I really only want 1 tv on the antenna, but possibly 2 at a later date.

I've seen some people able to use two antenna's combined to one coax. Will that not work?

Also, how long of a cable can I run without degradation? I'm thinking about 60 - 100 ft. to the top of the pole, to where the fence post I want to mount to. It is clear of trees and houses. Also, any recommendations on height?
