About KWHB
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 26 kW effective radiated power, KWHB runs more power than 14% 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 182 m above the average surrounding terrain, higher than 7% of full-power stations. Taller antennas see farther: this one's radio horizon is roughly 42 miles, beyond which the signal fades quickly.
We estimate a fair-or-better signal out to about 45 miles with an outdoor antenna. That area includes 46 cities and towns in our guide with about 835,000 residents, as far as Muskogee, OK (39 miles).
KWHB shares its transmitter site with KGEB. One antenna aimed at this site picks up all of them.
