About KLDO-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 150 kW effective radiated power, KLDO-TV runs more power than 42% of full-power TV stations nationwide (median: 273 kW).
Its antenna sits 135 m above the average surrounding terrain, higher than 3% of full-power stations. Taller antennas see farther: this one's radio horizon is roughly 37 miles, beyond which the signal fades quickly.
