really depends on which sats.. some are stronger than others.

I did OK with an 80cm dish. Worked fine.

Putting an inline amp on this would be akin to holding a sponge under a full glass of water. Yeah it'll hold some extra water but its a very inefficent way of getting the job done.

Theres nothing like more dish survface area to grab up the signal. Amplifiying what ain't there won't help.
