If that cap can be popped off without damage, a photo there would be instructive. If you have a chance, can you provide photos of the area of the antenna where the coax attaches and one or more photos of the indoor module? Just curious as their seems to be no documentation on the seller's website.
VERY Disappointing results. Before I get into that, you are correct about the amp.

Pulled nosecap off and here's what is there






Other end w/coax connection




Signal reception is much worse. Totally surprised me. Using a new 50' RG-6 and only get TWO channels, 24 and 7. Tried adding some elevation above trees in distance to no avail. Here's 2 pics to give an idea of what I did.

second try w/more up angle

I'm close to being pissed. I get better reception with the indoor Winegard non-amp flatwave. Geez. Even the original location through trees is better.

Damn
