I don't know when the term "booster" came into use with an antenna. The correct term is "Amplifier"..
I have been building antennas since HAM radio days. Omni-directional antennas are poor reception in all directions. For very long range a Winegard antenna is best. I used 2 adjustable amplifiers connected to mine. My range was up to 200 miles. Average was more than 125 miles.
Don't knock using a TV antenna. There are more channels the ever now. Receiving signals is free. I can get over 55 channels at hone using a amplified indoor Radio Shack amplified anntenna.
We had to sell our motorhome back in 2020 due to my bad health. The new owner was using my old equipment and was happy with it.
