Those between suburban and fringe might find this one a good choice, Winegard AP8700, as it has 17 VHF/ 19 UHF gain, low noise and a variable FM trap.

Those that might be 25 to 35 miles out but live near an FM station would be a good market for that amp.

It's actually all the fringe amp most people need.

Don, have you found the CM amps have any better dynamic range in a near overload condition than the Winegards? I have heard this stated before but not sure it's true.
