to build your own antenna requires a bit of knowledge about how radio - or in this case TV - worksTh common TV antenna is a Yagi and since the broadcast band extends from 56MHz to nearly 700MHz, dipole elements are arranged in a logrythmic configuration to get maximun bandwidth from a minimal number of dipole elementsThe antenna feedline is normally 75 ohms, the dipole is 75 ohms, connection to the antenna is via a 1:1 balun.
Yes, you actually can build a pretty simple antenna that works either indoors or outdoorsHere is the site with the detailed instructionsEnjoy! members.shaw.ca/hdtvantenna/
What you are proposing can be done, however it's not a good ideaBasically, you are going to attempt make a low power transmitter out of your cable signalIt won't be strong enough to give you a good signal in your room and will be subject to interferenceYour best bet would be to put in a cable splitter and run a cable to your roomThis would take a bit of work to install the cable neatly, but will give you much better resultsBTW, the people who say antennas are dead are seriously mistaken.
Hmmmmmmm, your list does not include a black permanent marker, clear nail polish, aluminum foil, cardboard, and glueIf you can find those things, I can tell you how to make an absolutely stunning necklaceYou have something to wear it on (string, chain, whatever) so that's no problem If your cardboard is lightweight, cut two identical circles and lightly glue them together - lightly so they don't curlCut a circle from the cardboard the size you want your pendant to bePoke a good hole at the top, about 1/4 down from the edgeWith white glue, draw a peace sign on the cardboard circleLet it dry and add another line of glue over the first oneLet that dry, tooDon't rush the dryingYour patience will be rewarded When it is totally and thoroughly dry, you have a raised designCrumple a smallish piece of aluminum foil and straighten it back outRoll it with a roilling pin for a really fun effectPut the foil over your circle and make sure it covers in the back, tooPoke the hole againNow, gently work the foil in around the raised designRub over it with the marker, then go over that with the clear nail polishRub most of the nail polish off with a clean scrap of cloth and throw that awayIt will even things out and make it look like an antique silver pieceHave fun!
