No vale la pena este preamplificador de todas formas tienes que estar dandole vulelta a la antena para que agarre los canales se suponia que tienes que poner en un angulo intermedio y con los aplificadores o booster obtendrias los canales pero no es asi no ayuda en nada solo es util la antena no es necesario el pre amp

I needed a hi-gain (30dB) VHF/UHF antenna preamp to cancel out the 30 dB RF line loss from 1000′ of RG11 coax. This Winegard AP-8275 delivered. I’m in a finge situation and when analog TV disappeared my HDTV reception was spotty, but found with experimentation that 1000′ away, on top of my hill, I can get excellent signals.
Winegard doesn’t recommend running RG11 coax nearly that far, because of DC supply power loss. I took a chance and the preamp delivers the signals (10 out of 10 bars on the HDTV meter), even though my RG11 has the lossier copper plated over steel center conductor. The supply is 14 volts and I am still getting about 12 volts at the preamp.
In operation – 2 weeks
Antenna – DB8
Preamp- Winegard AP-8275
Coax – 1000 feet CommScope RG11 direct burial to house, plus 15 ft RG6 to pwr sup unit inside house, then another 40 feet of RG59 to the HDTV.
Results – Outstanding from stations 40 to 60 miles away.

I had bought this High Gain amplifier to replace a much less expensive pre-amplifier ($4.95). The cheap model went anywhere in the antenna cable. This model needed power in the attic plus the amplifier mounted to the antenna mast. A lot of work and the exact same reception at the cheap mode. Don’t waste your money.

Nice unit, changed my life. I’m in a fringe area (30-40 miles outside of Albany, NY, in the mountains), so all I wanted was a way to bring in signals that aren’t quite strong enough to register on the new HD receivers. I’m off-grid, with limited electricity, so I just plug it in whenever I’m watching TV and unplug it the rest of the time. Ha! Excellent price at Amazon. My only complaint is that I have no thought how to get the rain boots onto the cable. There were no instructions on how to do so, and an hour spent with various tools finished in failure, so I’m not using them, which is not ideal.
