KTMD (Telemundo) · Channel 47

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 1,000 kW effective radiated power, KTMD runs more power than 79% of full-power TV stations nationwide (median: 273 kW).

Its antenna sits 597 m above the average surrounding terrain, higher than 86% of full-power stations. Taller antennas see farther: this one's radio horizon is roughly 70 miles, beyond which the signal fades quickly.

We estimate a fair-or-better signal out to about 81 miles with an outdoor antenna. That area includes 151 cities and towns in our guide with about 4,500,000 residents, as far as Huntsville, TX (80 miles).

KTMD shares its transmitter site with KVVV-LD, KLTJ, KVQT-LD, KFTH-DT, KUGB-CD and KUHT and 11 more. One antenna aimed at this site picks up all of them.

The nearest other Telemundo station in our data is KVDA in San Antonio, TX, 166 miles away. Viewers between the two can sometimes receive both.

Telemundo is a Spanish-language broadcast network with telenovelas, news, entertainment and major soccer coverage. It is one of the two largest Spanish-language networks on U.S. antenna TV.
