About KRMJ
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 21 kW effective radiated power, KRMJ runs more power than 11% 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 409 m above the average surrounding terrain, higher than 58% of full-power stations. Taller antennas see farther: this one's radio horizon is roughly 59 miles, beyond which the signal fades quickly.
We estimate a fair-or-better signal out to about 60 miles with an outdoor antenna. That area includes 15 cities and towns in our guide with about 147,000 residents, as far as Grand Junction, CO (10 miles).
KRMJ shares its transmitter site with K22JN-D, KFQX (Fox), KKCO (NBC) and K19NE-D. One antenna aimed at this site picks up all of them.
