    I'm not sure what type of amp, but it should be installed as close to the dvr as possible.

    Why are you recommending a $60 satellite signal amp for a channel 3/4 distribution problem? All he needs is a 15-25 dB vhf amplifier.

    Your right, I misread what he was doing. He can go to radio shack and buy a cheap distribution amp for that.

    You don't have to yell it me.....

    Edit:

    I tried to find one on SS or Radio Shack for the OP but they were all 40 - 60 bucks, you have one in mind for the OP?

    No I don't have an amp in mind he can shop his local market or search eBay. From about $10 he should be able to find amps.
