Re: coat hanger HD antenna, what wire?

I'm just going off blind memory but I had thought 75 ohm was for uhf and 75 ohm was for vhf, so where does Digital fall? If it works, I'm hoping to use a cheap rca distribution amp to send it all over the house. Its a cheapo one like this but 4 channel.

I'm gambling on a lot of things here but I'm using stuff I already have so I'm out about 3$ for the wire. Will the 75 ohm one work with digital (I think it resides around vhf channel 6 but I could be way off).

On a side not, all my tv's are sd, but I have all of them and all my computers enabled to receive digitalsd/hd and convert as necessary (I dont have all the bugs worked out on the computers but they work).
