Thanks to Rick0725 for the suggestions. I would prefer NOT to have to run separate cables for OTA and Sat., but will do so if necessary.

My primary concern is to have enough low noise gain with the OTA HD signals. I have a Winegard pre amp now, and am thinking about putting a CM-3044, 4 set distribution amp about 10 feet away from it, then distribute to the 4 locations. I have seen some other posts about this
elswhere on this foum, but haven't seen the pros and cons spelled out
by anyone with experience using a set up like this in a fringe area.
