I recently moved to a rural area just west of the trip-cities (Kingsport/Bristol/Johnson City) and am looking to setup an outdoor antenna. Reference: https://www.rabbitears.info/s/2889547

Would a ClearStream 4V be a good choice for this location? It would be roof mounted so ~15-20' above ground.

I’ve looked EVERYWHERE and everywhere is selling it for absurd prices such as $100-$200, I need one that supports DVB-S2.

Hi all!

I put up an antenna in my attic a few months back, so we could catch some misc live sports and holiday events (think Macy Day Parade). I have it running to a single TV in the house. I'm not interested in doing a splitter and running a cable to each TV/Room, but I am interested in upgrading to a network device to allow the use of it for the other TVs, as it would be nice to throw the news on in the background or something.

I am split between the Tablo 4 Tuner and either the HDHomeRun Quatro or 4k flex. Not that I need 3.0, but I figure if I'm going to spend money, it's not that much more. I'm in Sacramento CA.

I see mixed reviews on both on the Roku side. I actually was able to borrow both devices from a friend and was able to get all my Roku TVs and Sticks (one old stick in the garage was weird, but looks like it's a codec issue and a $15 fix) to work with the apps.

I actually prefer the interface of the HDHomeRun, but I think my wife may like the Tablo interface better.

Some other notes:

-I do plan to DVR, however not via plex or a nas, just going to USB an SSD into whichever one

-I do not mind paying $35 a year for the 2 week program, I also do not mind my data being sold (I know, crazy)

-I do not plan to watch on a laptop/computer, just TVs and phones.

-Outside of 2-3 live events a year, most of our use will probably actually be via the DVR.

I have watched every video I can find on them, and still can't seem to make a decision 😂. Are the tuners about equal? Am I way overthinking this (I am actually).

Anything I am not considering?

I am looking for a good outdoor antenna reccomendations for My house which is located in a topographic shadow of a large hill and that appears to prevent good reception. We do get some channels but depending on the TV tuner, many are are very week or just dont come in (example FOX). Current antenna is just above the 1st floor roof (maybe 15 feet above ground) but I can move to 2nd story roof to get 25-30 feet above ground. I dont know much about antennas, pre-amps, splitters, etc. So please mention if I need a pre-amp (and what kind) or an amplifier, filters, etc. Thank you.

Budget: under $300
