KJUD (CW) · Channel 8.2

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 0.14 kW effective radiated power, KJUD runs more power than 0% 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.

We estimate a fair-or-better signal out to about 4.9 miles with an outdoor antenna. That area includes 1 city or town in our guide with about 32,800 residents, as far as Juneau, AK (0.8 miles).

KJUD shares its transmitter site with K13OC-D and KYEX-LD (CBS). One antenna aimed at this site picks up all of them.

The nearest other CW station in our data is KYUR in Anchorage, AK, 575 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.
