About KISU-TV
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 189 kW effective radiated power, KISU-TV runs more power than 45% of full-power TV stations nationwide (median: 273 kW).
Its antenna sits 451 m above the average surrounding terrain, higher than 64% 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 69 miles with an outdoor antenna. That area includes 20 cities and towns in our guide with about 216,000 residents, as far as Rexburg, ID (49 miles).
KISU-TV shares its transmitter site with KIFI-TV (CW) and KIDK (Fox). One antenna aimed at this site picks up all of them.
