KSNT (Fox) · Channel 27.2

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 77.9 kW effective radiated power, KSNT runs more power than 34% 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 320 m above the average surrounding terrain, higher than 37% of full-power stations. Taller antennas see farther: this one's radio horizon is roughly 53 miles, beyond which the signal fades quickly.

We estimate a fair-or-better signal out to about 58 miles with an outdoor antenna. That area includes 48 cities and towns in our guide with about 775,000 residents, as far as Lenexa, KS (57 miles).

The nearest other Fox station in our data is KTMJ-CD in Topeka, KS, 8.5 miles away. Viewers between the two can sometimes receive both.

Fox is one of the four big commercial broadcast networks, known for its sports lineup including NFL, MLB and college football. Many Fox affiliates also produce local news.
