Did I say it would? I was saying that even though I aimed it in another direction they still come in just fine and while it's aimed in another direction the pre-amp appears to help. Like I said...

I'm trying to receive channels from other markets so a pre-amp still wouldn't help?

Then what's the point of the pre-amp? I thought it would only hurt the signal if the stations were too close?
