May I suggest that before buying an amp that you review the system that you intend to use as money spent on a good antenna and low loss feeder are a better investment than an amp.
Excellent suggestion, Peter.The difference between 5 watts and 160 watts is 15 dB. It's not too difficult to achieve 10 dB or more of gain with a 2M Yagi of manageable size, to gain another 10dB by getting it high in the air, and to lose 10 dB in a long run of small coax and junk connectors.
