I have used Miteq or Mini-Circuits preamps with a custom box (Al project box) and a 15Vdc regulator. These had around 20dB of gain which was sufficient at 3 or 1 meter for most frequencies between 1 - 18 GHz. The exact model that we used has been discontinued though and I am unsure if a replacement has been designed. I believe the cost for these preamps was between $1k - $3k, so they were pretty cheap if you are handy enough to build your own box to protect/power it.
