The Antennas Direct ClearStream 2MAX indoor / outdoor HDTV antenna uses two of our patented loop elements to receive TV signals 60+ miles from broadcast towers. Our MAX family of antennas offers the strongest performance in the most compact designs. Great reception right out of the box. Included 20" mast has a pivoting base for installation on vertical or horizontal surfaces. Dedicated UHF and Hi-VHF multi-directional elements offer reliable reception from the front and back of the antenna with a 60-degree beam angle, so you get more TV channels in crystal-clear HD straight from the networks, even if your broadcast towers are spread out. Ideal for urban and suburban areas where obstructions like buildings or trees between your antenna and the towers can interfere with reception. Coaxial cable sold separately. If you had cable or satellite installed before, the coaxial cable needed to distribute signal throughout your home may already be installed – simply connect the ClearStream 2MAX to the existing coaxial cable to start receiving free local channels. Find your TV channels and towers on our website or using our free Antenna Point app on android or iOS devices.

Title: Wow - Remarkable indoor reception
Review: I’ve bought a few of the indoor amplified antennas, $60 through $15 dollars all claiming to be the best. Don’t look any further this Antenna is worthy of the title best in class. Deployed in a closet and it’s outperformed every amplified window and bookshelf antenna I’ve ever purchased. Also comes assembled, bonus!! Great quality and does what it claims.

Title: Excellent HD Antenna
Review: I bought it to use indoors. It’s sitting behind a 65” tv. Works great! I’ve tried three other, cheaper antennas and they were too inconsistent. This thing delivers consistent, high quality video and audio.

Title: A Terrific short to medium range antenna for UHF and VHF
Review: I purchased this to replace my ANTOP AT500SBS indoor antenna. It's not surprising that it out performed the ANTOP when setup indoors in the same location as it's a larger antenna. However, when I installed it in my attic, the performance really jumped up. Much more so than when I tried the ANTOP in the attic.I'm about 27 miles from the majority of the TV transmitters, so that's not too far. Plus my attic is above a 2 story residence. Using a HDHomerun Flex 4 to measure the signal I was pleased to see that most of the ATSC 1.0 signals in the UHF range (~500MHz) now came in at or around 100% signal strength and 100% signal quality.Also when tuning to the VHF ATSC 3.0 channels the reception was 85% signal strength and 80% signal quality. This was a doubling of ATSC 3.0 signal quality over the ANTOP. I can now watch ATSC 3.0 without any intermittent breakup.The build quality of the antenna was very good. Very little flex in the elements. The 2 VHF elements swing down and out of the way. This makes it easy to maneuver in tight attic spaces. I used the included J-bar and steel mount to attach it to an attic joist.I found this antenna after watching "The AntennaMan" on YT. I highly recommend you check his YT channel out if you're trying to decide on which antenna you should choose for your particular location.

Title: Works Really Well Despite Lots Of Drawbacks
Review: I've bought a lot of different indoor antennas throughout the years. Now that cable/satellite tv is pretty much dead, getting network tv over the air is very much a thing again.The Bad: It's *very* cheaply made, thin plastic, crappy connectors, horrible instructions, very much a "China Special". It's also kind of an eye sore, even for me who is not that picky about such things. It's alsothe only indoor antenna that I've had (and I've had probably a dozen) to *not* include a coax cable *slaps head* aye aye aye. So don't forget to buy a nice long coax cable if you buy this!The Good: Despite all the drawbacks (and there are a lot of drawbacks!), without even really having to move it around and try to optimize, I plopped it down on the top of a tall bookshelf, scanned, and get all the network channels crystal clear! (plus the usual riff raff of tons of other secondary channels, most of which I'll never watch). That was certainly not the case of the last few antennas I tried, and those were powered and this is not! Go figure! So I'm happy with it.

Title: First one I've found that works even in the flight path
Review: We live about 20 minutes from a major airport, and we're in the flight path. We also live on a busy alley. We cannot put an antenna on our roof, and with the design of our house, the attic doesn't work either.We've tried several antennas. When airplanes fly overhead or cars drive by, the picture gets very pixelated and sometimes goes away altogether. It's been frustrating. I googled a lot to try to find one that isn't affected by these things but had no luck.I looked at this one because 1) it's an entirely different shape, 2) it gets great reviews, and 3) it has free returns. Given our experience with the other antennas, I wasn't expecting much, so free returns were important.We don't have great options for where to set antennas. I know height is important but we don't have a way to make it higher. It is currently near a window but on the floor by the TV.First impression was this was nice quality! And very easy to put together. (Note: it doesn't come with coaxial cable, but I had one on hand.)When we first tuned it, we got an extra five channels. (Update: we re-tuned it and now have 13 extra channels!) That surprised me, because we already get a lot of channels. It wasn't that important to me to have more channels, but it's still nice. The picture is also clearer, which also surprised me because I was happy with the quality of the picture using other antennas.The best part though is it works even with interference! We can watch tv with cars driving by and planes flying overhead. Occasionally we will get a few pixels from low flying planes, but nothing that disturbs our viewing.After trying several other antennas, I never expected to find one that actually works for our situation! I am very delighted and highly, highly recommend this.

Review: In our densely tree populated RV campground it brought in three more channels compared to the one and sometimes two we previously received. Windy conditions sometimes interfere with the signal. It’s nice to have a better selection of channels for viewing.

Review: After the price of Sky constantly increasing I decided to take down my satellite dish and replace it with this antenna. The picture on my TV is incredible and I've even managed to receive some French TV channels. Good signal. I didn't even need a booster. The only thing you need to be aware of is that the antenna comes without cable. The installation was easy. I didn't need to use any of the brackets that come with the antenna as I simply clamped it to the bracket my dish was connected to. I used a simple app using my phone entering my post code to find the direction of the nearest TV mast with the strongest signal and used the compass in the app to point the antenna in the right direction. All very simple and straight forward. I'm very pleased with picture quality and how much I am now saving having no subscription to pay out for.

Review: This aerial works well from the loft and i didn’t require any signal booster. I connected splitter to it for 2 tvs and both tvs receive over 150 channels.

Review: I bought this to replace my ClearStream 2V that looks like half of this but I hoped the additional gain would help stabilize a couple one-bar UHF channels. While it's built better than the 2V, I didn't notice any appreciable difference in signal quality. Also the UHF has a high gain, while the VHF has low gain. It seems bizarre to have a UHF antenna designed for 70+ miles with a VHF antenna rated at 30 miles. I'm 65 miles from two different transmitters.
