About WJPX
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, WJPX runs more power than 79% of full-power TV stations nationwide (median: 273 kW).
Its antenna sits 564 m above the average surrounding terrain, higher than 81% of full-power stations. Taller antennas see farther: this one's radio horizon is roughly 68 miles, beyond which the signal fades quickly.
We estimate a fair-or-better signal out to about 80 miles with an outdoor antenna. That area includes 196 cities and towns in our guide with about 2,150,000 residents, as far as Yauco, PR (68 miles).
WJPX shares its transmitter site with WTCV, WVDO-LD, WIDP and WVSN. One antenna aimed at this site picks up all of them.
