Recommended Setup for This Area

Attic or High-Gain Window Antenna

You have 8 Strong/Moderate channels. An attic or 2nd-floor window antenna will lock in way more channels than a basic flat panel.

📡 VHF Alert: 3 local stations here broadcast on VHF (RF 2–13). Pick an antenna with VHF rods/elements—not a UHF-only flat square. Why this matters.

🧭 Broadcast Tower Compass — Which Way to Point Your Antenna

Each dot is a local TV tower relative to your center point (● Green = Strong, ● Blue = Moderate, ● Amber = Weak).

NESW

Primary Aim Direction: SE (128°)

Place your indoor antenna near a window or exterior wall facing SE (128°), or aim your attic/rooftop antenna toward that compass bearing for the strongest signal lock.

After placing or moving your antenna, always run a fresh TV channel rescan.
