About KPNZ
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 450 kW effective radiated power, KPNZ runs more power than 59% of full-power TV stations nationwide (median: 273 kW).
Its antenna sits 1,229 m above the average surrounding terrain, higher than 99% of full-power stations. Taller antennas see farther: this one's radio horizon is roughly 97 miles, beyond which the signal fades quickly.
We estimate a fair-or-better signal out to about 104 miles with an outdoor antenna. That area includes 143 cities and towns in our guide with about 2,730,000 residents, as far as Logan, UT (77 miles).
KPNZ shares its transmitter site with KUCW (CW), KSL-TV (NBC), KBYU-TV, KUTV (CBS), KJZZ-TV and KTVX (ABC) and 8 more. One antenna aimed at this site picks up all of them.
