 Disappointing reception November 27, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
The clearstream 4 was easy enough to assemble. It is much smaller than the old style antenna I had. My old antenna did not bring in all the digital channels (which are almost all on UHF) as well as the analog stations that are going away, so I thought we needed to change.br /br /Well, we did change. Although the clearstream 4 brought in 2 channels my old antenna didn't, now I have worse reception on two of the main network stations. I am on top of a hill and under 30 miles from the broadcast towers, and am running an amplifier as well. Based on the manufacturer claims and some of the reviews, honestly, I expected more.br /br /I'm not sure what the next step is. Try to amplify the signal further, put two of these together or what?br /
 Perfect Reception, Easy Installation November 26, 2008
I was currently using a very small indoor/outdoor HD antenna from Radio Shack to pick up our local channels in HD. We have Dish Satellite, but the locals are not in HD, say using this antenna adds those locals. The small Radio Shack HD antenna pulled four of our locals in with a signal strength of between 65 and 85. The problem is below a strength of 70, the picture drops out.br /br /I purchased the ClearStream4 (probably could have gotten by with the ClearStream2, but it was only about $10 more). Assembly was easy - took about 20 minutes. br /br /I mounted it at the highest point on our roof and the signal strength originally was not impressive. So I looked up on mapquest where the towers where (just from knowing where the TV station towers happen to be) and gave the antenna a quarter turn and the strength jumped significantly. I'm only about 20-30 miles away from the towers in my area, but my signal strength is now 100 for all of them. br /br /The size of the antenna is not as large as you would think. We don't even notice it on our roof as you approach our house, not nearly as much as the traditional style antenna of other houses in our neighborhood.br /br /I would highly recommend this antenna.

Big performance in small package November 17, 2008

This antenna delivers as promised without the need of having a huge antenna mounted on the roof or an added pre-amp. I live 50 miles from the towers and I get all of the channels I want and the digital picture quality is fantastic.
Great DTV antenna November 13, 2008
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I have been very pleased with this antenna. I am ~43 miles from the TV towers in LA. I did have to mount this antenna on my roof, above the roof line of neighboring houses, but the signal I receive is great. I simply used the previously installed cable coax from the cable company, and hooked it up to the C4, and am able to get a perfect signal on three TVs in my home. So that's three 2-way splitters, ~100' of coax cable, and no pre-amp is necessary. Compared to the large traditional outdoor tv antennas that for my location would need to have a 5-10' boom length, the C4 is quite small. I was able to get 58 digital channels after doing the auto channel search on my digital converter box. And I can now enjoy FREE HD quality TV. I ordered and received the C4 from Amazon, but some of the metal parts arrived bent out of the box. I was able to assemble it anyway, and luckily they didn't seem to be critical to its function. With the advent of free digital TV, this is absolutely the way to go. There is no more of the fuzzy analog signal with digital. Ditch your cable TV provider and get rid of expensive monthly cable fees, get free HD TV with an antenna, and then you can always watch shows that aren't broadcast for free on the internet (Hulu.com, etc.)
 Clearstream Works Well November 11, 2008

I placed my Clearstream4 in the attic. Most of my local stations broadcast from an antenna about 25 miles away, so I have solid reception. I also purchased the antenna mast just for the ClearStream from Antennas Direct and mounted the mast to a 1 x 6 board that I attached to the rafters. I added a spliter amplifier from Menard to amplify the signal as I split it.
