Cutting the cable options?
 
I know there have been other threads covering this subject.
However has anyone used or know of the product contained in this link:

It seems to be of the too good to be true variety.

TV is too far from the transmitter. Up North (at home) I use that model & it works great as I'm relatively close to the transmitter. (10 miles) Limited range. 20-25 miles max.

Do you need one per TV? How long is the cord to the TV or is it wireless? I can't find out too much on their site.

Here in the Villages, you need an antenna that can get signals from at least 60 miles, since the closest broadcast towers (Orlando) are that far away. The one you in your link is only good if you are in or around the city.

Contact Tom at villagesav.com because he's the expert at doing Antenna's here! Lots of people have had success cutting the cord by putting up an antenna either in the attic or on the house roof line. If you just want a cheaper option look at Sling.com or DirecTVnow.com.

The Clearview antenna sounds like just another digital antenna. Assuming your within range of the transmitting antenna, you’ll get multiple channels but each network shows the same content, except for local news. I have a digital antenna on my RV and it gets 21 channels under ideal conditions. Again, network programming wil be the same on those channels of the respective network.
At home you can get Netflix, Amazon movies, etc, with an internet connection. You will pay a monthly fee to get premium content.
With cable and dish it still seems like 500 channels and nothing to watch.
