This is the equipment that I am dealing with @ my brothers location. 30 foot of rohn tower with about 7 or 8 feet of mast above tower with a ham 4 rotator in tower. It has 2 antennas mounted in the same direction on mast pipe. They may be about 3 feet apart verticaly. The top antenna is a Winegard hd-9095 and the lower antenna is a Winegard ya 1713. These antennas are connected to a dual input preamp. The preamp is a Winegard AP 2870 with seperate input for the vhf and for the uhf antennas. I just cut coax to fit to from antennas to amp. I am wondering if the length of coax from antenna to preamp should be the same? Something else I was wondering is since this pre amp has about 2.9 db of noise on both uhf and vhf with 17 db gain on vhf and 19db of gain on uhf would I be better off with a different preamp and a low loss combiner or diplexer?
