Great coverage
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It works well for my lical channels and clear picture on my 4k tv.
I would recommend this to a friend Pretty decent device
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I live 35 miles from the local television locations and in the middle of the Flint Hills so it's not really the machines fault that I don't have decent coverage. It depends on the weather sometimes as to whether I get the local NBC station which is the one I really want. I might have someone put it on the outside of the house, up higher than I can put it now and it might improve. Still undecided. Ease of use - the coaxial cable doesn't hold very well and is awkward. The arms are also strange. It seems top heavy. Again, if I roof mount it those would not be an issue. I didn't think it was too price until I got it out of the box and realized that the coaxial cable is awkward and doesn't stay attached.

Posted .Installing the antenna on your roof will definitely improve the performance.
Good reception

Worked great out of the box.
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This thing picks up over twenty more channels than my previous digital exterior antenna. Very impressive!

Poor Reception
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I struggled to get a good signal. Signal reception was extremely poor even when I was pointing directly to broadcasting tower (35-50 miles away). I would NOT recommend. I went with PBD WA-2608 Digital Amplified Outdoor HD TV Antenna with Wireless Remote at half the price. With PBD WA-2608, I got 75 channels (versus 22 channels) and don't have to climb ladder to adjust antenna.

Posted .Hi there! While we understand that you did a comparison of our ClearStream 2MAX and the PBD amplified antennas, the PBD WA-2608 Amplified antenna is in fact AMPLIFIED and the ClearStream 2MAX is not. Therefore, your comparison is not a true claim. In the future, if you decide the PBD antenna is not working out for you, give us a call and speak with one of our experts to find out which antenna is right for you. Call us at 877-825-5572 or send us a message at antennasdirect.com and we would be happy to assist you. Best regards, your friends at Antennas Direct.

Good buy.
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The quality of the channels is very good. I would not recommend hanging it in the window unless you live in the city. I put mine on a pole hugher than my roof to get a good signal. I live in a more rural area.

Posted .Greetings! Thank you for your purchase and informative review of our ClearStream 2MAX. Placing an antenna in the right location is key to getting better signals. We always say the higher the better in most instances. Remember to re-scan for channels once a month as broadcasters do add new ones periodically. We greatly appreciate your business!
