Sorry if I didn't make this clearer in the article due to space constraints, but the TV surveillance antenna gives me a fair degree of directionality, enough to distinguish planes on different LGA and JFK approach/departures paths as they move through different parts of the sky, although once you get within 90 degrees of the reference signal all is lost. You also get a velocity and a range, albeit a bistatic one, similar to the first U.K. Chain Home radar stations.

Did you maybe write down more details somewhere else? Also, consider sending your article to the https://www.rtl-sdr.com/ blog, it is really cool work!

Thanks! I have notes scattered around, but they're not coherent (unlike the RTLs! <rimshot>) and I doubt I'll have time to publish them as once I've written an article I generally have to move on the next thing, which is the downside of being allowed to play with nice toys.
