    Why does my pre-amp decrease signal instead of increase?

    Actually I think it's low on carbohydrates isn't it. I just had a workout partner several years ago that nicknamed me Keto. I can't tell you much about a Keto diet, except mine, I had breakfast burritos this morning. Haha

    Why does my pre-amp decrease signal instead of increase?

    The CB friend 316 out of Wichita gave me this several years ago and it worked great with my Cobra 2000. I think this is one of the separate boxes @nomadradio mentioned.

    Why does my pre-amp decrease signal instead of increase?

    @nomadradio what this makes me think is if 1/3 or so preamps might fail, maybe I should leave it preamp off an amp purchase?
