Tivo Roamio OTA MoCA Setup

I need some assistance designing a MoCA network for a new Tivo Roamio OTA (TCD846000) and Mini (TCDA93000) setup. I'm currently with DirecTV which makes the setup a bit more difficult. My antenna is in my attic and I have runs to all but one TV, where my cable modem and router are. This is also where I want to place my Tivo Roamio OTA. In the garage, I have another run of coax just for DirecTV, where all three TVs have coax runs. I don't have Ethernet jacks where the two minis would go.

Short of drilling a hole in the garage (and risking hitting our bedroom) to try and run a cable through the attic to connect the two, this is the only design I could come up with and really hope it will work! From what I've read in other posts, as long as you are using MoCA splitters, the signals will travel in both direction, which is what I'm banking on!

In the diagram, the 8 port MoCA would be in the garage (where the current DirecTV connections are) and the 4 port non-MoCA would be in the attic connected to the antenna. I guess this could easily be a smaller splitter or even an f-type connector, too. I figured there is no need to have the MoCA network extend to the antenna.

I'm fairly confident the MoCA connections would work OK, but my concern is whether the OTA signal would reach the Tivo Roamio OTA. The 8 port MoCA splitter I'm looking at is the PCT * Port cable TV Splitter Signal Booster/Amplifier with Active Return Zero Signal Loss and Integrated MoCA Filter also a signal booster/amplifier, but am open to any suggestions on what has worked well! I'd post a link to it, but I don't have enough 'points'.
