I have read post after post and totally confused myself.

I am putting an antenna in the attic.

I want to put a "reasonably" priced amp on the mast.

I am hoping to stay in the $40 range.

Having had great luck with Winegard in my RV I was going to get a LNA-200 ... then I read the horrible reviews.

I can get the RCA TVPRAMP Z1

or the HAMZA 1515HD

or the CX-7778

... or ????

It is just for every one I pick, I start reading comments and none seems really happy with any of them.

I am in Vermont ... I get 18 channels ( well really 5 ... stations ) and maybe the is the best I will get.

There are some "fringe" stations from Montreal I would love to get but according to the map / chart / report ... it will be unlikely.

I am really in a hole with mountains all around.

Still if I can get a decent amp for $40, it is worth a try.

Any suggestions ????

Thanks .... Mike
