KGET-TV (CW) · Channel 17.2

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 135 kW effective radiated power, KGET-TV runs more power than 41% of full-power TV stations nationwide (median: 273 kW).

Its antenna sits 405 m above the average surrounding terrain, higher than 57% of full-power stations. Taller antennas see farther: this one's radio horizon is roughly 59 miles, beyond which the signal fades quickly.

We estimate a fair-or-better signal out to about 65 miles with an outdoor antenna. That area includes 62 cities and towns in our guide with about 1,120,000 residents, as far as Corcoran, CA (65 miles).

KGET-TV shares its transmitter site with K04SB-D, K21PL-D, KKEY-LP, K08MM-D, K18HD-D and KUVI-DT and 6 more. One antenna aimed at this site picks up all of them.

The nearest other CW station in our data is KCOY-TV in Santa Maria, CA, 89 miles away. Viewers between the two can sometimes receive both.

The CW is a commercial broadcast network carrying entertainment series and a growing slate of sports. In smaller markets it often runs as a subchannel of another station rather than its own transmitter.
