A lot of people buy loftboxes when all they really need is a simple
distribution amp ... I regularly have to talk people out of buying
loftboxes simply because they don't meed the antenna management side of it
and just need a D.A.

Make sure you really need a loftbox before you jump at one - I reckon a
D.A. would do here but if you're on IRC in the evening Q then you can
catch me on there if you want.
