PCT-MA2-8P Amplifier Problem

My TvFool Report:

http://www.tvfool.com/?option=com_wr...8d17f55aae50ea

Antenna: Clearstream 4
Pre-Amp: Winegard AP-8275

This setup gives me 71 Channels including (subchannels), if I plug in the amplifier I only get 11 channels. If I unplug it and plug in an unamplified three way splitter I get 61 channels.

Am I plugging it in wrong? I run RG6 from power (unplugged) to amplifer. I screw in the first three RG6 connections I have run to three tvs. I then run RG6 from the pre-amp to the antenna in on the amplifier. Finally, I plug in the power and the green light comes on. When I do a channel search on the tv I only get 11 channels.

Any ideas? I don't have terminators on the open connections yet as I have to purchase them and the unit has a screw for a ground wire but I have not grounded it yet.

Thanks for any help, -jmfsms
