I am thinking on buying a pre-amp for my scanners so i could receive further agencies but not sure on what i should buy and if it would be wise due to me living in a dense metro area. I live in Chino,CA (30 miles east of LA) I have 3 scanners (BC346XT, BCD396XT and BC125AT) all attached to a 4 Port MCA204M VHF/UHF Receiver Multicoupler, which is then attached to a discone antenna on the top of my house (all pics on my profile). What, if any, pre-amps should i look at? i am aiming on getting more of LAPD,currently only getting 3-4 channels but very choppy, more of San Bernardino System 10 aprox 24 miles away. I was thinking of buying a yagi antenna but don't really want to buy/mount another antenna on the house. Any suggestions?? Thanks!!!
