    Cut the Cord

    We put this bad boy on the roof. Let me tell you, if I didn't know it were an antenna, I'd say someone was streaming HD quality or better via their internet. The channels depend on your area and the direction you face the antenna, but once you figure out where to place it, you'll feel perfectly comfortable cutting cable out completely.

    This is a great little antenna right now I have it mounted about 8ft in the air and I receive all of my local free TV channels... I have it hooked up to all 3 of my tvs and they all come in crystal clear... can't wait to get it up on my tower to see if I can receive out of town channels. Might have to pick up another one for the cabin.

    This antenna does the job. I receive stations from up to 40-50 miles away without an amplifier. I will say this unit is somewhat fragile, but once installed,stands up real well. A big plus was that it was in stock at the local store.

    Receives as many stations as previous models that were Amplified. This model does not require a inline amplifier. Although an amplifier can be used if needed. Great technical support in choosing the proper model for my area

    Placed in attic and supports 3 televisions. Works great and pulls in signal for all stations at about 72%. Using Tivo to record shows and have had essentially no issue. Have had a few shows that had garbled transmission during high winds. Area we are in is too far from PBS broadcast which was disappointment but getting via Amazon firestick.

    My home isn't located in the best position. Lots of trees, ridges, and small mountains in every direction. But this antenna does a good job at picking up quite a number of stations and feeds a high-quality image on to the tv sets in the house.

    Fantastic - Just Install it Correctly

    Does what it says on the tin. Make sure it is mounted high on the house and aimed correctly based the location of your nearby broadcast towers. In the Indianapolis market this antenna see roughly 60 different channels. All the others I tried received 10 maybe 20 at best. Worth the purchase - just make sure you take the time to install it correctly.

    This is the second ClearStream 4MAX antenna I have purchased. This antenna replaced an old traditional antenna on my shop that just wasn't working anymore. Very good reception. This antenna is mounted about 17 feet in the air. My other ClearStream antenna is mounted about 25 feet and does pick up a couple more stations. Best Buy had the best price on this antenna.

    We cut the cable & got this antenna. We get channel 69 News & Channel 69 accu-weather (near Allentown, PA) !! A few other odd channels that keep me entertained while in the kitchen. Need to have someone not scared to climb on the roof to re-adjust the antenna, to see if we can get more channels. We were hoping for more channels.

    I have not installed the antenna yet but my installer thinks that it will not be difficult to install. He is going to install it on the roof of a 3 story townhouse. I will write another review to give an idea of the range of TV stations I can get after he installs it in two weeks. He says if it works for me, he will purchase one for his home.

    I installed this antenna on top of my warehouse and split the feed between two TVs. After using the app to determine the best direction I am receiving 30 channels for a one time fee of $140 or so. Can't beat that! My employees and I have been enjoying having the channels. The channels come in very clear and most come in at 1080 with Dolby 5.1 audio. Worth the money in our case.

    The antenna is great for the distance listed, but if you are trying to get weak stations you will probably need a pre-amp mounted at the antenna. I used a Channel Master Amplify Adjustable Gain Preamplifier. It got all the weak stations within range after installing the pre-amp. The antenna is easy to put together and mount.
