KREY-TV (CBS) · Channel 10

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 2.6 kW effective radiated power, KREY-TV runs more power than 2% 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 35 m above the average surrounding terrain, higher than 0% of full-power stations. Taller antennas see farther: this one's radio horizon is roughly 23 miles, beyond which the signal fades quickly.

We estimate a fair-or-better signal out to about 21 miles with an outdoor antenna. That area includes 3 cities and towns in our guide with about 29,700 residents.

KREY-TV shares its transmitter site with K28AD-D. One antenna aimed at this site picks up all of them.

The nearest other CBS station in our data is KREX-TV in Grand Junction, CO, 55 miles away. Viewers between the two can sometimes receive both.
