    Due to my distance from a major TV market, this antenna just didnt’ cut it. But it’s not the antenna’s fault.

      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. antennasdirect

      Hi there! We appreciate your purchase and honest feedback of our ClearStream 4MAX HDTV Antenna. There are many factors that could be causing interference with the TV signals, such as other electronics in your living space or heavy foliage in the area. We definitely recommend the higher you can place your antenna, the better your signal will be. If you would like more assistance on ways to improve your signal strength or different placement options, just give us a call at 877-825-5572 or chat with us online at https://www.antennasdirect.com. Thank you for your business! antennasdirect

    It didn't fair any better than the $10 antenna I bought previously. Hardware is all there, so that's nice. Coax connection should be a solid connection and not just a small connector to plug into. Yes it still works but it should be a coax connector that's stationary and not movable.

    Was not what we expected. We only picked up a few channels during the day. We got nothing when the sun went down or if it was cloudy. It was suggested we put 30 feet up. We were not doing that because it was only for temporary use. Not at all worth the money.

      Hi there! We apologize that our ClearStream 4MAX is not working out for you. We do have a free app called Antenna Point you can download to your iOS or Android phone. Once you download, the app will identify your location. You will see the towers in the surrounding area, so you aim the antenna in the right direction to pick up the TV signals. If you have not already returned the product and this does not help, please give our tech support team a call at 877-825-5572 and they will perform a FREE signal analysis, this will better assist them in pinpointing what the problem may be. We appreciate your purchase and feedback. antennasdirect

    Bought this and though for sure it would work with spending sooo much on a antenna and it barely picked up anything at all and I would not recommend unless u live in a big city maybe but then I doubt u would need something so expensive!

      Greetings! You may not be airming the antenna towards the towers. Go to our transmitter locater and put in your zip code: https://www.antennasdirect.com/transmitter-locator.html. Also, often times, you have to find the sweet spot for the antenna. The roof or in the attic is the best place to install this antenna. Give us a all and we can help you receive the best signals. It should only take 10 minutes of your time. We are available 7 days a week, 9am to 9pm Mon - Fri and Sat – Sun 10am to 6pm Central Time. Call us toll-free 877-825-5572. antennasdirect

      I am sorry to hear you had trouble assembling the Clearstream 4 Max, and then the reception was not where you were hoping. Your reception is based heavily on your specific location and the signal variables there.

      If you would like help getting your Clearstream 4 Max working as well as it can, please contact our Connection Crew at your earliest convenience. They can be reached 7 days a week either on the phone @ 877-825-5572 or online with our Live Chat option @ antennasdirect.com.

      Thanks for your support! Antennasdirect

    I hooked this antenna up on the outside of my home on the same bracket that Dish had need installed on. I figured that would give me the best area for the reception. I got no more channels that the cheap little wall mound antenna I have had for years.

      It is possible that you were already receiving all the available channels in your area with the indoor antenna - even within a 70 mile range. We always recommend checking the towers before upgrading to a new antenna as we do not want folks to purchase equipment they may not need. antennasdirect
