Tigerbangs. Could you give us a little insight as to what we can expect a preamp to do for our antennas. Looking at antennaweb it looks like it gives you greater range by strengthening weaker signals. I have some stations that are just under 50 for signal strength. My receiver does not "lock" until steady over 50. Is this the type of problem a preamp would help?

Could you also tell us which splitters are needed for OTA. I have seen 5-1000 GHZ ones and also 40-2050 GHZ splitters.

Thanks this is a great forum!
