Description
Winegard Boost XT LNA-200 TV Antenna Preamplifier
Best For
Over-the-air TV installations using a non-amplified outdoor antenna where signal loss from long coaxial cable runs or splitters is contributing to weak or unreliable reception.
Why Choose the Winegard Boost XT LNA-200?
The Boost XT is an outdoor preamplifier designed to strengthen VHF and UHF signals near the antenna before cable and splitter losses occur. Its low typical noise figure helps preserve signal quality while adding gain to compatible non-amplified antenna systems.
Key Benefits
- Designed for non-amplified outdoor HDTV antennas
- Typical maximum gain of 18 dB
- Typical 1 dB noise figure
- TwinAmp technology separately amplifies VHF and UHF signals
- Powered through the coaxial connection using the included power components
- 75-ohm television antenna system compatibility
- Helps offset signal loss from cable runs and splitters
Who Should Buy the LNA-200?
This preamplifier is suited for OTA viewers who already have a usable antenna signal but lose signal strength through coaxial cable or splitters. It is not intended for use with an already amplified antenna.
Core Specifications
- Maximum Gain: 18 dB typical
- Noise Figure: 1 dB typical
- Power: +5V at 130 mA
What's Included

Installation Notes
Install the preamplifier near the antenna when possible and use compatible 75-ohm coaxial cable. A preamplifier cannot create a signal where none is available, and excessive amplification can overload a strong-signal installation. Confirm antenna type, power, grounding, and signal conditions before installation.

The only one that works
by Morgan
I live in a congested area full of oak trees. Every signal (even AM) is blocked. I can pick up TV with this amp, but I listen to FM too. The antenna system has a yagi FM antenna aimed at the weak FM station I want to get. The other antenna is high VHF conical with UHF aimed at a different direction. They're mixed and sent through the LNA-200. Other preamp makers block FM. This is the only one that works for me. Without it, no TV signal gets through, and I can get the distant FM station (about 65 miles away) clearly with HD coming through. Its frequency is 89.9 and it broadcasts with 100,000 watts. Please keep making the LNA-200.
Quite a Boost
by Rich
Have Winegard Booster mounted indoors with approximately 25-30 ft. of RG6 cable between outdoor antenna and signal booster. Was skeptical that it would work, but TV went from receiving 18 stations to around 75 stations with digital over air TV. Works well in this fringe zone location between two main broadcasting locations. I hope that it outlasts my old RCA booster which failed every few years.
You need this
by Michael
There should be standard equipment on any antenna you install
Works

helped reception with 106 broadcast channels!
Really Works
by Jeff
We were having difficulty pulling in signal for our TV. This worked like a charm. Our prior service was restored.
Can you see it now?

Helps bring in the signal.
Great pre-amp
by Antennaman
Great pre-amp, been using for years, easy to install.
Outstanding!
by Bob -
This thing works perfectly. I installed it with a 5' lead from the roof mounted antenna, a 35' run into the house and then a splitter with (2) 50'+ runs. It not only increased the signal and SNR for the channels I was receiving but also pulled in an additional 10 channels I didn't receive before. All cable is RG8. I'm impressed with the performance and I'm hoping it lasts a long time.
Does the trick
by Richard
Atlanta area....have a 6ft yaggi antenna, gross 126 channels ( a lot of channels I don't wanna watch) added your Winegard boost xt. pre-amp at the antenna and new rg6 coaxial. At the tv I connected cable and the 110V adapter to the tv. The clarity and contrast is out standing. I recommend this product
Works great
by Tem Moore
This preamp made a noticeable improvement on my signal strength and number of channels after doing a rescan on my TV. Met my expectations
