Everytime I disconnect and connect something I lose the signal and I have to wiggle things around a bit to get the signal back.

Winegard has a video about troubleshooting the phasing lines for that series of antennas:

I put on a Winegard HDP-269 preamp but I lost all signal.

Where did you put the preamp, at the antenna or inside?
Quote:
If I move the antenna even 2 inches, it makes a difference in getting a channel or not.

That antenna has the highest gain in that series, so it has the narrowest horizontal beamwidth.

When it is split, I lose the signal.

When you split, you lose 3.5 dB.
Quote:
When I put that on I also lost the signal even when it went directly to the TV without splitting it. So it I'm assuming it's not the preamps but something that is happening when I connect it.

Was the preamp getting power from the power supply/power inserter?
