    ClearStream 2V Indoor/Outdoor HDTV Antenna with Mount - 60 Mile Range

    • (You would think a manufacturer/company/distributor could afford to produce a decent how-to video with enough light, yes?)So, all-in-all, I am giving this product four solid stars minus one star for poor assembly directions.
    • Next, I put it on the eave, about 17 feet off the ground, and pointed it in the correct direction using a compass, and I received 6 channels, only 2 of which were in English, and both are PBS stations
    • So then I ran a new cable and raised that 40 ft pole again, pointed it in the right direction and tightened it down
    • Put this up on my roof - easy install, directions sufficient (could have been a bit more detailed) - and got good reception for local channels along with more channels I hadn't realized were out there
    • I checked the US FCC and AntennaPoint websites to get the proper direction to point my antenna on the roof.
    • And I didn't even try to aim the antenna in the optimal direction!
    • But we put it on the roof, pointed it in the right direction and we are watching tv again
    • And then we used the tv connected to the antenna to fine tune the direction of the antenna
    • Go to http://antennapoint.com to see where your local towers are and use your iPhone compass to point the antenna in the right direction!
    • Once I knew everything was working well and the antenna was pointed in the right direction, I disconnected the TV, got out the ladder and ran grounded coaxial cable from the antenna to our basement
    • The assembly didn't take long, directions were decent
    • With the aid of android apps, I was able to located the stations and point the antenna in correct direction (I mounted it in the attic and used existing cable wires)
    • Easy to assemble, easy to set up (I just leaned it against an inside wall upstairs, facing in the right direction), and now I'm watching HD television for free
    • I would say that the manufacturer could give some clearer directions on putting it together.
    • What is really odd is that I needed to point the antenna in very much the wrong direction to get a signal.
    • No fine tuning necessary...just put the antenna in approximately the right direction and they all tune perfectly.
    • The vague directions for assembly is the reason for 4 out of 5 stars.
    • You Can Get on a Map" to see which direction you'd like to point the antenna, and how far away those stations are by clicking the little colored circles on the map with your mouse
    • Did not have to do any fine direction tuning.
    • right direction.
    • I mounted this in the attic, pointed it in the right direction and get a crystal clear picture
    • I didn't even point it in the right direction and got 32 flipping channels.
    • The directions were a little confusing, but it went together fine.
    • Definitely has some assembly required and directions are spotty at best
    • Could probably fine tune the direction and even look into a rotator to pick up a few extra channels
    • You do have to work to get it adjusted in the right direction
    • Used their web site to find the correct direction for broadcasts.
    • Unfortunately the ideal reception direction pointed the antenna straight toward the neighbors two-story brick
    • It's very sensitive to direction, and while there is a sweet spot direction wise, the wind in recent years has both knocked off two of the long VHF elements, and also tends to rotate the
    • Then its just a matter of getting the antenna as high as possible and aiming it in the right direction
    • USA.Make sure you point the antenna to the right direction
    • I presently have this antenna mounted on the 3 rd floor in a window facing the right direction I would assume that I will receive a better signal when i move this out to the rooftopmy main channels are 140 Deg apart so need 2 different directions or a rotor.in
    • I put it on a 30 foot pole outside my house and as long as it points in the right direction I receive all the broadcast channels in HD quality.
    • Once the direction is right, you will find this to be a great antenna for the price.
    • have 4 TVs in our "cable ready" house but since you cannot run OTA TV over the same coax simultaneously with Cable TV...not even with a splitter/combiner, we're only able to run the coax to one tv right now until I come up with another method to get the antenna to the other TVs (i.e. wirelessly).I used a compass to direct the antenna within the 90° range in the right direction of the broadcast towers and have the antenna hanging at the peak of the second floor near the front of the house (we have a slope in the backyard with two streets behind us that are higher elevation-the further away from that the better)
    • You may need to take a couple trips up the ladder to fine tune the direction of the antenna, but overall I'm very satisfied.
    • I have to adjust the direction sometimes and when I turn on another TV directly below it, it knocks out some of the weaker signals
    • Having it mounted on the roof and pointed in the right direction cleared everything right up
    • The directions and videos on Youtube were very helpful and easy to follow for putting the antenna together and also mounting it.
    • When a particular channel did tune-in, the picture WAS clear in fact, that is after manipulating the direction of the antenna.
    • Saves me $$$$.I mounted this in the highest peak in my attic and pointed it in the proper direction and get nice clear channels
    • But now with digital signals I wondered I if things were better
    • Amazing!I added a $23
