I am looking for ways to improve my receive for 2-meter SSB weak signal

mounted preamps bring the signal up significantly.
Doe any one here use one for 2M SSB? What are your experiences?

Am just today experimenting with satellie in-line amplifiers,
the variety for home sat reception, cheap, small.

Some range from 100 MHz to 2,4 GHz, some have limiting
filters on the input which you can easily remove or modify.

Works.
