I would try it without a preamp first. but with the UVSJ": you have so much signal coming from the two local transmitters that I honestly believe that you are going to have some real preamp-overloading issues. If you insist on using a preamp, use a Winegard HDP-269. which is the most overload-resistant preamp currently available. You only need one preamp, in any event. It's very easy to overestimate a preamp's worth based on analog experience, and unless you have very long coaxial cable runs (> 75' ), or plan to run multiple TV sets, a preamp is likely to do more harm than good.
