Winegard Boost XT 20dB Pre-Amp for Outdoor HDTV Antennas (LNA-200)

Winegard Boost XT 20DB Pre-Amps For Outdoor HDTV Antennas (LNA-200) Are Top Of The Line I Have Been Buying Winegard Products Since The Mid 1970's Many Of Those Classic Antenna Systems Are Still In Use They Are Built To Last DECADES Products QUALITY/TOUGH AS SHERMAN TANKS. Antennas Direct Is Grand As Well THANK YOU! SOLID SIGNAL! YOUR SERVICE IS GREAT, PROMPT ALWAYS RIGHT ON THE MONEY! STAFF OUTSTANDING!

This Winegard pre-amp appears to be an excellent boost amp for the money. Unfortunately for me, our antenna is mounted close to the ground on the side of a hill obscuring the transmitting antenna 43 miles away. Worse, my antenna is in the middle of a forest of 70' high trees. In spite of all this, the Winegard did allow me to receive some other closer stations - I recommend it. I also commend the seller, Solid Signal - A reputable and customer oriented vendor.

I install nothing but Winegard LNA-200s and they out perform and outlast every other preamp on the market. And Solid Signal has the best prices and fastest service so my customers are never kept waiting.

The LNA-200 is built to last and has class leading low noise figure performance. Plenty of gain for even the longest coax runs yet plenty of AGC overload protection and filtering

Installed as directed in combination with a Winegard HD8200U TV antenna. Numerous new stations for free-it's all good.

Purchased the LNA-200 Pre-Amp with the Winegard HD769HP antenna. Got it all set up w/antenna pointing SSE this weekend, 5/6/18. The antenna is 10ft. above our 1-story roof peak. We're 30+ miles from Cedar Hill where the vast majority of the station towers are located for DFW area. The Pre-Amp drives 3 Sony TVS (32, 40, & 55) off a 3-way splitter. My old antenna (a Radio Shack long-distance one, about 10ft. long) picked up 20+ signals. This new setup pulls in 117 digital and 1 analog signal. FYI - I already had a 120VAC electrical outlet box in my attic so it was convenient to plug in the Pre-Amp's power supply. Also, I used RG-6 coax cable rather than RG-59. I read that it's a better coax cable. Just wanted to let you know this setup works great. Hope this helps.

Before investing in OTA (Over The Air)equipment, make sure what stations you intend to receive. Be aware of the FCC mandated Repack which is ongoing which will change the number of stations remaining on the air and those which will go dark (Off air permanent). Once completed, the repack will have removed all UHF channels higher than channel 36. Few stations have opted to go back to the low band channels (2-6), some will to the High Band 7-13), some will revert to a sub-channel on another station and some will leave the air permanently. The low band stations will be very isolated and few in number. If you live 40 miles or more from a station, use an outdoor pre-amp mounted right under the antenna and a rotator if you have stations in different directions. Avoid antennas in the attic due to the shielding from metallic insulation and foliage (trees) which also blocks signals. If you still have concerns or questions...contact Solid Signal.

Use this in freedom NY and arcade NY area in southern tier NY to get MeTV and a few other station and it never fails always works like a charm and often get them on sale for like 39$ making it that much better

After spending two hours installing this unit, I am sorry to report that it has made no appreciable difference. The stations that I hoped to pick up more clearly are no better and I have actually lost some of the other channels. The weather boots that are provided to seal the coax connections are useless because they won't stretch over the cable ends. Also be sure to buy two extra coax cables, one for the antenna and one for the powered cable box at the TV. If I didn't have to spend two hours removing this unit, I would return it. At this point I am tired of dealing with it.

Added to a Clearstream 2 antenna, 35 miles from towers, could not get abc, now get abc with no problem and no distortion from any channel, have 5 other friends and family hooked up the same way and everyone loving it.
