About WLLA
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 350 kW effective radiated power, WLLA runs more power than 54% of full-power TV stations nationwide (median: 273 kW).
Its antenna sits 331 m above the average surrounding terrain, higher than 41% of full-power stations. Taller antennas see farther: this one's radio horizon is roughly 54 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 142 cities and towns in our guide with about 1,460,000 residents, as far as Muskegon, MI (61 miles).
The nearest other MeTV station in our data is WWME-CD in Chicago, IL, 121 miles away. Viewers between the two can sometimes receive both.
MeTV (Memorable Entertainment Television) is a free over-the-air network of classic TV series from the 1950s through the 1990s. It is often carried on a subchannel of a local station.
