This has a stronger signal than a ClearStream 4V in the application I'm using it for. I gave this antenna the worst possible situation: - There is not a hill, but literally a mountain in between my house and the broadcast towers. - The towers are 22 miles away, but with a mountain in between, even the ClearStream 4V would have signal issues sometimes, and it cost 3 times as much as this. - My location gets exactly 0 channels with ANY indoor antenna I've tried. - My HOA rules require any antennas to not be visible, so it's not on my roof. I was about to cite the FCC's rules and fight it, but tried this first. - The antenna is about 4 feet from the ground and surrounded by walls, and there are a lot of large trees in the area too. See the photo. - I have not amplified the antenna or done any modifications. I'm using random Coax cables I had lying around, no idea how the shielding is. Here is how it performed: - Every local channel has a signal strength above 70% and is clear with no glitches. - This performs very well on UHF and VHF. NBC is difficult to get in the Phoenix metropolitan area with any antenna I've owned. With this, it's my strongest channel. - Somehow, I'm getting a signal strength of 45% on Tucson's channels, 112 miles away. Again, this is mounted 4 feet from the ground and surrounded by walls! - The Tucson channels are perfectly watchable with no glitches or interruptions. A storm might affect the signal. - When the ClearStream 4V was mounted in the same place, I had a 40% signal strength on NBC from 22 miles away. This antenna is 1/3rd of the price and gets a better signal strength with channels 112 miles away! I had my doubts. I saw all these people mounting it on their roofs, living close to the broadcast towers, raving about the antenna. Short of putting this thing inside of a solid steel bank vault and trying to watch TV, I couldn't have given this antenna a worse situation, and it performed. You should buy it.
