From the manufacturer
Our Patented Loops. As perfectionists and antenna enthusiasts, innovation and quality are two of our highest priorities. This is why our patented loop elements are unique in the industry. Networks like ABC, CBS, NBC, FOX, PBS, MeTV, ION, and many other networks broadcast in Full HD 1080, UHD 4K, 8K, and NEXTGEN TV where available, because OTA signals aren’t subject to compression like cable and satellite. Our ClearStream TV antennas are specifically engineered to receive the frequencies broadcast in North America and truly provide the most consistent reception of over-the-air TV signals straight from the source.
The ClearStream 2MAX TV antenna is versatile and uses two of our patented loops to receive TV signals 60+ miles from broadcast towers. The multi-directional UHF and Hi-VHF elements are specifically tuned to the frequencies broadcast in North America to receive TV signals from both sides of the antenna.
TV Antennas Are a One-Time Cost.
With a ClearStream TV antenna you can supplement your streaming services and it won't add another payment to your budget.
ClearStream TV antennas receive HDTV with 5.1 Surround Sound. Cable and satellite signals are compressed while over-the-air signals are straight from the source in beautiful, crystal-clear high-definition.

What's in the box
Product Description
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.

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.
Instructions for assembly are good, but one printed step was vague (online tutorial video helped me with that issue). The included mast needs to have a wider base if you wish to use antenna (on this mast) indoors - get some scrap wood, maybe 8" x 8", and fasten the scrap to the base, attach antenna properly over the mast offset. For outdoor use (eg, wall or roof mounting) the stock base and provided fasteners should do fine.
The suggested Android antenna aiming app is very good, worth installing it. Use it, get the antenna aimed, and then uninstall because you shouldn't need it again until something is relocated or you change your mind about your target stations.
I'm using this indoors, not really the best signal setting for ANY antenna. Good signal overall for indoors, best signal for me is when the antenna is near a window and aimed properly..
Is a bit large for indoor placement.
I would buy again only if I could place outside, but housing rules says no outside antenna. As is, I'll definitely keep it.
Indoors, away from window: 22 stations;
Indoors, closest to the window with the best aim, 44 stations with a weak signal amplifier connected at the antenna.
Outdoors, no idea.
