[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I only needed the antenna to get FOX TV. Signal comes in strong and I live about 31.5 miles away from the transmitter.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This antenna was super easy to install. I am able to receive up to 29 channels with better and clearer pictures than cable which charges extra for HD reception.
I had two directional mast antennas, one WNW for channel 11 (41 mi 278º) and 13 (46 mi 284º) and one ENE for channels 8 (46 mi 54º) and 10 (49 mi 64º). UHF Channel 29 (19 mi 350º) has always been good. We had poor reception and weak signals for channel 11 and 13. Live chat with Antennas Direct recommended the Clearstream 5 - to improve reception for 11 and 13. It did not improve the reception for 11 and 13, but I reversed the existing mast antenna from ENE to WNW and directed the Clearstream 5 to NE, all signal strengths are now satisfactory.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had an XG-91 and purchased a Clearstream 5 to compliment it and now I recieve all that one could ask for, and more, from the two products. The setup was simple and went up without a glitch. The customer service was fantastic in answering some minor tech details regarding installation as well. The antenna delivers performance much better than expected given my distance from signal was near it's maximum quoted range.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought my ClearStream 5 (several months ago) because my ClearStream 2V was having problems picking up some stations. I live over 36 miles from the stations it was having issues with. Once I installed the ClearStream 5 the stations I was having issues with came in clearer then they did with I had one of those satellite companies...
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] When we first got this antenna set up it was great here in the woods of Maine. However, a rainstorm came through and now no matter where we aim it we only get 1 channel! I don't think one channel justifies the price or the time in string it up
