About KTEJ
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 322.9 kW effective radiated power, KTEJ runs more power than 53% of full-power TV stations nationwide (median: 273 kW).
Its antenna sits 310 m above the average surrounding terrain, higher than 33% 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 62 miles with an outdoor antenna. That area includes 52 cities and towns in our guide with about 275,000 residents, as far as Paragould, AR (19 miles).
