WFMJ-TV (CW) · Channel 21.2

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 740 kW effective radiated power, WFMJ-TV runs more power than 71% of full-power TV stations nationwide (median: 273 kW).

Its antenna sits 295 m above the average surrounding terrain, higher than 26% of full-power stations. Taller antennas see farther: this one's radio horizon is roughly 52 miles, beyond which the signal fades quickly.

We estimate a fair-or-better signal out to about 63 miles with an outdoor antenna. That area includes 365 cities and towns in our guide with about 3,830,000 residents, as far as Parma Heights, OH (62 miles).

WFMJ-TV shares its transmitter site with W13DP-D. One antenna aimed at this site picks up all of them.

The nearest other CW station in our data is WPNT in Pittsburgh, PA, 52 miles away. Viewers between the two can sometimes receive both.

The CW is a commercial broadcast network carrying entertainment series and a growing slate of sports. In smaller markets it often runs as a subchannel of another station rather than its own transmitter.
