In-Line Satellite Signal Amplifier?

The signal amplifier only helps if you are not receiving a signal at the receiver, it doesn't help the picture as it does with cable transmission. Because the satellite transmission is digital, you either have it or you don't. If you are using a standard definition set top box, then you are just seeing the poor source for what it is. The new TV is like a cleaner window to a poor signal to begin with. The only way to improve on that is to use a video scaler. This will make the picture sharper and less pixelized. You can spend thousands on these devices, but if you just want to make the satellite pic a bit better without going crazy, grab the one off this ebay listing. I have sold several of them and they do a nice job of sharpening up standard def. They used to cost nearly a thousand bucks, but should get them real cheaply now.

This is a problem alot of people expience with sports and other action movies. I do not think the signal amplifier will help. What i would recommend is making sure your television is recieving a progressive signal. Most HD TV's will only process 1080i (integrated) which isnt so good for sports and action movies. If you can set it to 780p and see if that helps
