Hmmm... Could you explain why I need two pieces? Why can't I just
have one 3 foot piece of wire?

Basically, the center of the six foot section has an impedance that
closely matches the impedance of the 75 ohm coax. It's called a
center-fed dipole (two poles broken in the center). Or you could
use rabbit ears which are also broken in the center.
