Best digital amplifier for existing antenna
We have a Windgard Sensar III Antenna on our 2015 Montana. We want to upgrade it to a digital amplifier but be able to mount the new amplifier on the existing antenna pole. So what would be the best...

For those questioning my range, evidently none of you have ever read the manuals for passing the HAM license.
You would understand how cloud cover and other conditions can allow for signal bounce. The Sun is your worst culprit. Best time to search for signals is night time or mid-day. Rising and setting Sun cause the most interference.
Also: LED lights, fluoresent lights, exhaust fans, microwave use, all mess with the signal.
I have logged all channels picked up from different locations in the past. Just like the old days for shortwave on my Hammerlund HQ180 receiver.
Rather than argue on the forum I prefer to help those who always show up to ask how I am getting chennels when they can't. Those not willing to think "out of the box" are the only real losers. You can read my old posts if you care.
By the way; I picked up 63 channels with one search last week in Lac Qui Parle State Park near Montevideo MN. Just the right condition with rain clouds, and just after sun-set. Of course most channels dissapear after clouds move out.
