with this booster do i need to add this...Winegard HDA-200 Distribution Amplifier Adjustable Gain 5-1000 MHz 24dB? to have more channels, or just boos

The LNA-100 is a low noise amplifier designed to amplify weak signals and used close to the antenna. The HDA-200 is a distribution amplifier designed to overcome losses in splitters and long cable runs to multiple TV's.

Booster works fine I have two antennas one with and one without didn't notice huge different with amp so second antenna I didn't use amp.

I didn't have to add it. Just connected the item directly to my TV which was very easy to do. The other end then connected to my antenna. It definitely helped. Without it, I could not get PBS station. With it, I could.

Did you end up buying this preamp and using it with the FL6550A? We have same antenna and not getting channels like we should on two of our tv's. One tv w/ white amplifier plugged into tv works. Use it for the other tv, still don't get enough channels.

Yes, whatever your signal strength is now, the booster will ensure that signal is sent to your TV. Just be sure to have your antenna positioned to achieve optimum reception.

I believe that you must be referring to an amplifier regarding channels. This unit sounds and works great.

I used it to combine 2 db8 antenna and they worked great. If you have a weak signal then yes i woul add a preamp/amp combo to boost the signal.

Well it won't 'boost' anything; it's not an amplifier. The antenna is supposedly trimmed for a maximum gain of 3.2 dB at 446 MHz. If it flattens your wave energy (gain) at other frequencies, it does not say. It could drift off to unity at all other frequencies for all we know. Your radio uses a SMA-M.Apparently the 4 best antennas for your HT are the -Diamond SRH320AMaldol MH-610Comet HT-224Jestream JTH2

One more thing to Norman Normal, you have not specified which amp you have. If you have a Denon, there is a menu option buried down deep where you can specify multi-channel or two-channel.

Did not work for me. Only lasted a few weeks. Try the Winegard ANWI8700 AP Signal Amplifier

Yes. Add that with the booster, you better not be holding it close to your ear or fine crystal. :-)

The Antenna I purchased came with the amplifier. Check and see what the model you are looking at states as some do not come with the booster.

Probably not with this version. Winegard does have a different version that is amplified. You might want to look into an external antenna for that distance though.

No. This amp is intended for an external (outside) antenna. I had one of the flat antenna's you are using or considering. My experience was negative. It was junk. Regular rabbit ears did a better job than the Winegard. If you have a 100' run you may well need to amp it. Have you looked at TVFool and entered your address to see what stations you get and how strong or weak they are? http://www.tvfool.com/index.php?option=com_wrapper&Itemid;=29

I am sorry, but the receiver you have doesn't have pre-amp outputs. You can't add any amp to this receiver. Sorry. Some of the higher end receivers have pre-amp outputs that allow you to add external amplification.

It should increase your reception, but I wouldn't guarantee it. I have bought two other amplifiers that have 25 db which work great but they don't sell them anymore.. I have not had the same response with this one.

better call winegard-to technical,but I will tell you that I double stacked the winegard on top in one direction and a larger rca antenna just below it in the other direction tied together with a winegard coupler,works well and don't have to rotate the antenna, got 22 clear channels. no cable or sattelite!

If your receiver is pushing more watts per channel then this amp will not be louder. But the quality of sound produced by the Emotiva will more than likely be a large improvement, unless you own a high-end receiver (normally costing thousands of dollars).

I have an aftermarket Alpine stereo and in L.A. it boosted all of my am and fm stations i I also learned that some stations come in, in HD!!! Which was a welcomed surprise not sure where you are but it really helped me alot. Good Luck!!
