Watch the strength - its common for FM to come in at 120-130dBµV off a
decent outdoor aerial, which will overload the amplifier if combined in.
You may need some attenuation on the FM before the combiner. And you
have to use a proper diplexer or you will bring reflections of UHF crap
in on the FM aerial and ruin your UHF reception.
