Installing the distribution amplifier closer to the antenna is better then further away from the antenna.

Amplifiers do not 'pull' signal through coax , amplifiers 'push' signal through coax.

The Most Important Action to take Now is get the CM2016 Antenna Up Above the Peak of the Roof so that Reception is Not , Obstructed , Impeded , Blocked by the Roof and Building in the Directions of All Directions.

As Always , Antenna Location and Antenna Aim can be Adjusted for Best Reception.

Most Digital Tv's have a Signal Strength Meter and some Digital Tv's also have a Signal Quality Meter.

Signal Quality is important for reliable reception.
Thanks again for your help. As far as signal quality goes would you say 68% is reliable or will I lose these signals more frequently? I am hesitant to put the antenna on the roof for the obvious reasons. Also I don't believe it will clear the trees enough to make a big enough difference between the roof and 25' pole length on the ground. Once again I'm a novice and not suggesting you're recommendations are not valid I just want to be sure it's worth the trouble is all.
