About KJNP-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 30.9 kW effective radiated power, KJNP-TV runs more power than 18% 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 492 m above the average surrounding terrain, higher than 70% of full-power stations. Taller antennas see farther: this one's radio horizon is roughly 64 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 8 cities and towns in our guide with about 78,000 residents, as far as Fairbanks, AK (10 miles).
KJNP-TV shares its transmitter site with KTVF (NBC). One antenna aimed at this site picks up all of them.
The nearest other Trinity station in our data is KTBW-TV in Tacoma, WA, 1,520 miles away. Viewers between the two can sometimes receive both.
Trinity Broadcasting Network (TBN) is a Christian religious broadcaster with a large network of owned stations and translators.
