Posted .Greetings! With an attic / outdoor antenna, location of install is a key factor to receiving the broadcast channels. You can see the broadcast towers in your area by clicking this link: https://www.antennasdirect.com/transmitter-locator.html. We also have an app called Antenna Point that helps you aim your antenna in the direction of the towers. The higher up you place the antenna on the mast, the better the reception will be for you. If you need any assistance with the best location to install your antenna, speak to a friendly Connection Crew team member by calling us toll-free at 1-877-825-5572 and we will evaluate your home location. The call and support are free. We are available 7 days a week. 9am to 9pm Mon - Fri and Sat – Sun 10am to 6pm Central Time.

Posted .That's odd... please call our support team to help you troubleshoot. Unless to towers are over 80 miles away you should pick up all the locals in your area. Did you scan your TV for channels using the remote? Give us a call at 877-825-5572 we are available 7 days a week to help.
Works great outside Metro in Minnesota
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Antenna works great. I live in Minnesota, outside of the Twin Cities metro area, about 43 miles from the broadcast towers. I placed the antenna in my attic (roof is asphalt shingles, siding is steel) and used the "antenna point" app to aim it directly at the towers in the northern suburb area. I used a 50 foot coaxial cable to run from the antenna to my basement where I hooked it up to cable splitter. I used a signal amplifier at the input and the signal is then sent to all of my cable jacks throughout my house. I have three televisions with built in digital tuners that I use. All three televisions picked up 54 channels with this configuration. I get al major networks--CBS,NBC,ABS,FOX,PBS(tPT),CW, ION, plus all the side channels that come with them. One of my televisions has a scale that shows how many "bars of signal" i'm receiving and all of the major networks come in at 2 bars out of 5. The picture is crystal clear and as good as the cable signal I was getting. We will see how it holds up with snow and rain outside. Assembly was easy, needed a screwdriver. Used a drill to install on a rafter in the attic but took less than 5 minutes to install in the attic. Fishing the cable through my walls took a little time but well worth it in the end. There are cheaper antennas available but I liked the reviews on this one. It's not multidirectional so if you're in a place where towers are in different locations you may want a different product.

Posted .Sorry to hear you didn't have a good experience with the ClearStream 4MAX. This antenna is our most popular antenna and works fantastic. It is very possible you are already receiving all the available channels. Antennas will only receive the signals that are being broadcast from the towers in your area. You can check to see if you are receiving all the available channels by downloading our free app Antenna Point.

It does what I need it to do!
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Like a lot of people I am tired of cable prices. I went to a streaming service, but I needed to fill in some of the missing local channels Sling Blue doesn't give me. Enter the ClearStream 4MAX. I live in Manchester, NH, so the Boston stations I'm trying to pull in are about 50-60 miles away, due SE through rolling, granite filled hills. When I mounted it in the optimal location, I pulled in 42 channels with only one (CBS) having intermittent reception issues. ABC, NBC and FOX come in nice and clear. I'm going to try a 20db booster to see if I can clean up CBS. Just like your dad's or granddad's antenna, placement outdoors and up high is best. Due to the small size and light weight, I was able to mount this outside my third floor attic window from inside the house. No ladders involved, thankfully. I have it split between two TVs on a 25 foot run from the antenna into a 10db booster/splitter and 10 foot runs to each TV with no degradation in signal. My only gripe (a minor one) is that the mounting hardware could have had the same socket size, being that the mounting nuts and the bracket bolts were only one size apart. It was more than I really wanted to spend on an antenna, but it works and is less than a month of cable service.

I would recommend this to a friendAntennas Direct Clear Stream 4 Max.
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Wow! I tried a cheaper, omni-directional antenna and got ZERO channels. After reading many reviews, I decided to try the Antennas Direct Clear Stream 4 Max. Glad I did! I now get 41 to 57 channels on each of my 4 TV's with no amplifier. Easy to set up and install. I highly recommend this antenna. My stations are 10-50 miles away in different directions and reception is crystal clear. The Antenna Point app was a great help too.

Doesnt pick up from 70 miles
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This antenna will not pick up our locals. 70 miles away.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from Antennas Direct Expert
Posted .Greeting from Antennas Direct! Try placing the antenna up higher as trees and buildings can block the TV signals. You will also need to face the antenna towards the largest cluster of towers in your area. You can download our FREE app Antenna Point from iTunes or Goggle Play or visit our website using the following link to see the towers in your area https://www.antennasdirect.com/transmitter-locator.html. You may need to move the antenna to several locations to find the best reception. Remember to rescan for channels at every location you place the antenna before permanently attaching the antenna to any surface. If you need assistance, call us toll-free at 1-877-825-5572 and we will evaluate your home location for you and provide tips on receiving the best signals. The call and support are free. We are available 7 days a week. 9am to 9pm Mon - Fri and Sat – Sun 10am to 6pm Central Time.

Wow 50 channels
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had a huge antenna in our attic that barely pulled in 6 channels. I bought this when we picked up a HDHomeRun Quatro hoping that we would receive at least the big 3 networks. Much to my surprise we pulled in 50 channels! No more grainy / buffering / pixelated TV. It was super easy to assemble and install. I used the old mounting pole from our huge old antenna and it worked perfectly. Paired with the HDHomeRun Quatro and now every TV in the house pulls in all 50 channels without a single coaxial cable hanging down the wall -- all of our TVs have Amazon Fire Sticks or Rokus. Perfect solution and I'm not paying Comc*st hundreds of dollars a month! Would highly recommend this and the HDHomeRun Quatro!
