Hi David,
did you test the MAV11 on 136kHz ?
Mini-Circuits gives a frequency range of 50-1000MHz (while the MAR, ERA,
RAM series start at DC), so it may have a internal C that limits the lowest
frequency.
The datasheets gives a IP3 of +30dBm, so it you can get any gain out of it
at 136kHz it should be OK.

Dave, Graham and I used a MAR3 pre-amp in Guernsey and found it overloaded
with the large signal from Lessay. The MAV11 is rated at 60mW output and may
be a better choice if you can spare the current.
