About KVRR
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, KVRR runs more power than 79% of full-power TV stations nationwide (median: 273 kW).
Its antenna sits 379 m above the average surrounding terrain, higher than 52% of full-power stations. Taller antennas see farther: this one's radio horizon is roughly 58 miles, beyond which the signal fades quickly.
We estimate a fair-or-better signal out to about 70 miles with an outdoor antenna. That area includes 30 cities and towns in our guide with about 284,000 residents, as far as West Fargo, ND (35 miles).
The nearest other Fox station in our data is KFTC in Bemidji, MN, 91 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.
