I did see something that *claimed* to do this but how succesful it would be
I wouldnt like to say.

Upper end of the UHF spectrum is 860MHz which is well above the capability
of CAT5.

Might work for low channels <30 but not at the high end.

5 Aerial feeds when there are only 5 terrestrial channels available seems
strange. 1 feed with a distribution amp would be all that is needed. Would
be better to have 5 old VCR's as tuners and use something like KAT5* to
distribute over CAT5. Coax is by far the best distribution medium for UHF.

* Preferably KAT5 as I need to raise the money for my new PC!!!!  :-)
