I am not a fan of using a preamp AND a distribution amp together except in the situation of having VERY weak signals. I don't think that you will need it, first of all, and secondly, if you choose to connect the two antennas on the antenna mast and come in with one down lead that you would be better off using a preamp, which is designed to live out in the foul weather. My personal experience is that it is better to amplify weak signals as early in the reception chain as is possible as long as you don't overload the preamp with too many strong signals. The beauty of the HDP-269 is that it can tolerate very strong signal inputs without overloading, and yet will provide amplification early in the reception chain so that your weak signals won't get buried in the cable and splitters.
