It's also popular to call the television wall plate a "booster" when in fact it has no ability to amplify the signal at all - it merely routes 12 vdc power to the antenna head where there is a signal preamp and routes the appropriate signal to the television.

Oh, contraire.
It depends.
You know as well as I that I'm not referring to the Winegard SensarPro, which I own myself, but a standard Winegard non-amplified wall plate installed as a stock item in any trailer running a Sensar III or IV. :R

Obviously I'm referring to these stock wall plates, which almost everyone refers to as a "booster" - geez, just look at Old-Biscuit's post above! :S Au contraire indeed - these wall plates have NO ability to amplify the signal, unlike the specialized SensarPro which offers +/- 10 db of signal amplification / attenuation. You and I both understand that, it would behoove others to understand it as well - no need to cloud the issue. ;)
