Except for when I "upgrade" MythTV and it all breaks.  Then we need to
have something to fall back on.  Also, if I come to rent out this house

Are we even going to have DVB-T?  I thought it was just DVB-S...
Anyhow, UHF and VHF can be combined on one cable.  Pretty much everyone
with two aerials on their roof has a combiner up there...
