KAMR-TV (NBC) · Channel 4

Full-power stations are the main licensed broadcasters in a market. They may run the highest power from the tallest towers and are protected from interference, so they set the core of what you can receive.

At 400 kW effective radiated power, KAMR-TV runs more power than 56% of full-power TV stations nationwide (median: 273 kW).

Its antenna sits 455 m above the average surrounding terrain, higher than 65% of full-power stations. Taller antennas see farther: this one's radio horizon is roughly 62 miles, beyond which the signal fades quickly.

We estimate a fair-or-better signal out to about 71 miles with an outdoor antenna. That area includes 26 cities and towns in our guide with about 322,000 residents, as far as Amarillo, TX (8.3 miles).

KAMR-TV shares its transmitter site with KACV-TV, KCPN-LD and KCIT (Fox). One antenna aimed at this site picks up all of them.

The nearest other NBC station in our data is KCBD in Lubbock, TX, 127 miles away. Viewers between the two can sometimes receive both.

NBC is one of the four big commercial broadcast networks. Local NBC affiliates carry the national morning show, evening news and primetime lineup, plus Sunday Night Football and, in Olympic years, the Games.
