Not good enough for location
on July 17, 2018
Posted by: SatisfiedIwas
from Bonney lake
Easy to install worked well, got many more stations but not the ones we wanted, not a fault of antenna just our location, trees, hills, building and weather issues.
I would recommend this to a friend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The instructions made the assembly of this antenna very easy. Antenna Direct Technical Support provided the best location to install and position the antenna. Also, they provided a list of stations within a 70 mile radius which we receive with good reception. I installed new cable to eliminate any possible static along with an amplifier "The Juice" with this antenna. ClearStream 5 UHF/VHF out performs two antennas we purchased previously and returned due to poor reception.

Great Results
on February 4, 2019

I purchased the Clearstream 5 VHF antenna along with a DB8e UHF antenna and a combiner a on the recommendation of Antennas Direct. They did a great job of assessing the details of my situation (attic setup with no option to go outdoors). I also have a Channel-Master 3414 4-port amplifier. This system replaces my old Clearstream 2 antenna (with the same amplifier) which while being good, could not consistently provide a strong enough signal.
The new setup has been in place for about a month now, with excellent results. The family no longer threatens to go back to cable. I highly recommend the antennas, and the combiner. Very easy to set up and they work as advertised. I'm only about 20-25 miles from the key antennas in my area and they are close to each other in terms of direction from my house. However, the roofing materials and trees made it necessary to get the high gain antennas. Very happy with the performance.

Works Well for VHF Reception
on August 11, 2019

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am over 40 miles east of all of the VHF transmitters and this antenna picks them up well. It also picks up some UHF channels. But I cannot rely upon the Clearstream 5 to pick them all up because for some reason one moment the uhf transmitter east of me, becomes pixelated and some time loses it's signal., Therefore I've linked a clear stream XG91 to a combiner to pick up the remaining
channels that due east of me. I've tried several Antennas that have VHF capabilities , including the CS 4Max with UHF/VHF. DB8, CS2, and other companies but this is the only antenna that satisfies my VHF tv Watching.

Improved VHF Reception
on September 24, 2020

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Initially I was using a ClearStream 2Max antenna, but it had to be rotated to receive quality signals from the two stations in DC broadcasting on VHF. The ClearStream 5 allows me to have the two antennas pointed in different directions to receive better receptions from stations broadcasting in both bands. I bought the ClearStream 5 to improve reception of the two VHF stations in DC (11 miles away) and to potentially receive the two in Baltimore (41 miles away). It sigficantly improved the reception of WUSA and WJLA in DC and it receives a decent signal (60-70%) from WBAL. WJZ's signal strength is around 60%, but it is not decodable so there may be interference or multipath issue to resolve.
The ClearStream 5 was a big improvement to watch VHF stations and eliminated the hassle of rotating an antenna. It's compact enough to fit on one of the shelves in my foyer closet.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Seems to work. Combined with db8e in attic. Still have things to figure out. Possible Interference and long run.
