I don't get these signal fluctuations without the PA-18......Can there signal fluctuations be the Pre-amp clipping?

Yes, it could be. I wanted to eliminate the very pronounced risk of FM overload first. Some of the stronger UHF signals are near the limit of vulnerability to PA18 overload. I made a very simple rule for our in-house sales and support staff: If the TVFool estimate shows stations "in the green", don't sell or recommend the PA18, it's really for rural locations only where everything is weak.
Shoot me your mailing info, either by PM or via email to info (at) antennasdirect.com and I'll send out a Juice. I KNOW it won't get overloaded whereas the PA18 might be, perhaps by something as yet unidentified.
rickbb already made the specific point that I was angling toward. His advice is spot on, but yI'd recommend that you try the Juice first before committing to a relocation of the antenna. BTW, I can't see any photo of the install, perhaps it got lost.
