There is a new advocate for ditching your cable and cutting the cord: Walmart. The Walmart website now features a section that walks you through the steps of cord cutting. The site lists four steps to cord cutting; starting with cancelling your cable and switching to streaming and ending with making a one-time purchase of […]

The big day is finally here… The NEW ClearStream Eclipse is available for purchase! *pause for tiny celebration from everyone reading this* We have taken our award winning antenna and made it even better. That’s right; we have made improvements on the best antenna in the market to make it, a super antenna? Yes. A […]
We’ve said it once, and we will say it again. If every station was like WRAL in Raleigh-Durham, the world would be a better place. They were the first station to broadcast a high definition TV signal in 1996, and then once again made history in 2000 when it produced an entire newscast in HDTV. […]
After several long days of driving along the Lincoln Highway, Richard and Noel made it to their destinations and were able to enjoy some food, drinks and rest. But not before testing out the ClearStream Eclipse in each location! In these two videos, they test out the reception in Elko, NV and Cheyenne, WY. Both […]
Our fearless leader has made his way from San Francisco to Reno, Nevada. Not only is he not in last place, but the car is doing great, and the antennas are doing even better! See how the ClearStream Eclipse tested in Sacramento and Reno in our latest recap. Even standing in the parking lot of […]
The pay-TV companies are at it again. It seems like on a weekly basis we are reading about yet another dispute between pay-TV and local providers. As if it’s not bad enough that they gouge their monthly fees for customers, but now they’re coming after the stations. What will they do next? Enough is enough! […]
Television has come a long way since the days of rabbit ear antennas on top of TV boxes weighing over one hundred pounds. Now, you can get a TV so flat you are afraid a stiff breeze might break it, and a little box can get you hundreds of channels. That little box obviously comes […]
We’ve heard some horror stories about cable companies charging customers outrageous fees, horrible customer service, and refusing to fix mistaken bills. But this story takes the cake. A Tampa Bay family decided to cut the Comcast cord after months of being charged for porn they did not order. And before you say “sure, they CLAIM […]
According to conventional wisdom, television channels are organized by simple numbers; 1, 2,10, etc… But what people may not realize is there is an entire subset of television channels, bundled together, and hidden from people with cable television. These hidden networks are called Digital Subchannels, and they’re quite possibly the coolest thing about over-the-air television. […]
We get it, taking the plunge and cutting the cord isn’t always an easy decision. First comes convincing your family. Then deciding what equipment you will need, what HD antenna, what streaming services, etc. And then… you dive into the deep end. You call your satellite or cable provider and give them the bad news. […]
Now, it’s not too surprising that the FCC Chairman Tom Wheeler recommended that the commission approve Charter Communications’ plan to buy Time Warner Cable, but we were hoping that maybe he would come to his senses and realize just how STUPID that would be. We were wrong. Anyone who thinks this is a good idea […]
