A:AnswerWe currently have ours connected to 2 TVs only because those are the only tvs in the house. We used the cable line that was connected to our satellite dish so theoretically it should run to anywhere you have a previous cable hookup
A:AnswerYes you can! I have an Antenna for local channels. And with my Roku I can get Cable channels with SlingTV. I pay 29.99 a month (no contract). However with The coronavirus, There is a version of SlingTV that is free right now for you to check out. No cable for me. I cut the cord five years ago and have save $150 a month since then. All I pay for is the internet and SlingTV (around $100 - I have the best Internet for streaming videos and gaming). FYI: The ROKU streaming device has over 200 cable-type channels that are free. I can get XUMO and PlutoTV for free. Check them out on your smart phone and you’ll be amazed that these cable companies are free!
A:AnswerCheck the web sites: http://www.tvfool.com/ and https://www.disablemycable.com/station-finder/ These sites will provide you the distances to the broadcast towers from your location and also the direction your antenna must be pointed towards to receive specific channels.
A:AnswerThere are several tv towers in NM. The higher you place any antenna the better your receptivity in my experience. I am not an expert but am using antenna and have in the past. I am using a clear channel 4way. It allows up to 4 tvs and I am receiving one signal from over 100 miles, but most channels are coming from a distance of 50-70 miles.
A:AnswerI have the antenna installed in my attic and have a 3-way signal splitter with RG11/U coax running from there to 3 TVs. I'm 35 miles away from the transmission tower and all 3 TV work great. Your results may vary depending on how far away you are from the transmission towers (see: https://www.antennaweb.org/) and how long the cable runs are from the antenna/signal splitter to the various TVs in your home.
A:AnswerThe signals this antenna pick up are like regular radio signals which pass through regular materials easily. You can aim the face of the antenna in the correct direction and it should pick them up. Unless your bldg is shielded to block those types of signals it should work. Easy way to test it...how's your radio reception in you apt.?
A:AnswerIf NBC is broadcast within range this antenna will pick it up. Mine picks up NBC, ABC, CBS, FOX, and a lot of other channels as clear as they were when I had cable.
A:AnswerYes, you'll need to run a coax cable to your TV. This is not a wireless system. If you want true wireless be prepared to spend a lot more money buying the equipment.
A:AnswerThe reflector focuses the antennas power for added range and also provides protection against multi-path interference. If you need a reflector kit for you antenna, you will need purchase the kit at antennasdirect.com or call their support team at 877-825-5572. The reflector kit for the ClearStream 4MAX is $24.99 - right now they are on sale for 35% off.
A:AnswerIt all depends on how many TVs it will be feeding, and also how far you are away from your broadcast market. I used one because I am feeding two TVs, and I am 52 miles from my broadcast market.
A:AnswerThe range of the Hi-VHF element can vary based on terrain, but generally it is about 40+ miles. The UHF element will receive signals 70+ miles from the towers.
A:AnswerWhile Seattle is a tricky area to receive signal in, many homes in the Seattle area have had success using the Clearstream 4 Max. Still, I recommend contacting our Technical Support team directly to go over your specific location and see if the antenna can work for you.
Technical Support can be reached either on the phone @ 877-825-5572 or on our website @ https://www.antennasdirect.com/customer-service.html.
Thanks for your time!
A:AnswerThe wire grate is on the older style that I purchased back in 2012 and it works great at 70+ miles with boost xt amp. I have the newer Clearstream 4 that I purchased 2022 no grate on the rear and it works excellent at 40+ miles with signal amp and gets even more channels ( which I think is because of the closer proximity). They work about the same in my estimation?
