About KBEH
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 35 kW effective radiated power, KBEH runs more power than 21% of full-power TV stations nationwide (median: 273 kW). Stations on VHF channels are licensed at much lower power than UHF stations to cover the same area, so a low figure does not always mean a weak signal.
Its antenna sits 894 m above the average surrounding terrain, higher than 96% of full-power stations. Taller antennas see farther: this one's radio horizon is roughly 84 miles, beyond which the signal fades quickly.
We estimate a fair-or-better signal out to about 78 miles with an outdoor antenna. That area includes 328 cities and towns in our guide with about 19,400,000 residents, as far as Barstow, CA (76 miles).
KBEH shares its transmitter site with KWHY-TV, KAZA-TV (MeTV), KHTV-CD, KZNO-LD, KSFV-CD and KPOM-CD and 1 more. One antenna aimed at this site picks up all of them.
