Hello,
I purchased the below antenna. I have it approximately 25 feet in the air. See attached photo. I get 57 channels and am satisfied. I would like to get Baltimore local channels. I've posted the signal analysis for my address. With the information provided, can anyone tell me if a signal booster would help me obtain any more channels? I don't want to buy something that won't help me. Thanks for your assistance.

Your antenna already has a 30 dB booster in it. I doubt that adding another booster will make it possible to receive signals 70 miles away.

Adding another booster will cause overload from your strong local signals.

A directional antenna might be able to get some of the
D.C. and/or Baltimore stations. The MCM 30-2430 or
the Antennas Direct DB8e would be good choices.
The question you have to ask yourself is: Do I need or
want to spend $200.00 or more to get those extra
channels????

Thank you for the responses, I figured as much and am glad then I didn't buy a signal booster.
