About WOTF-TV
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 130 kW effective radiated power, WOTF-TV runs more power than 40% of full-power TV stations nationwide (median: 273 kW).
Its antenna sits 428 m above the average surrounding terrain, higher than 60% of full-power stations. Taller antennas see farther: this one's radio horizon is roughly 61 miles, beyond which the signal fades quickly.
We estimate a fair-or-better signal out to about 66 miles with an outdoor antenna. That area includes 162 cities and towns in our guide with about 2,580,000 residents, as far as Haines City, FL (59 miles).
WOTF-TV shares its transmitter site with WDYB-CD. One antenna aimed at this site picks up all of them.
