About WUNM-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 700 kW effective radiated power, WUNM-TV runs more power than 69% of full-power TV stations nationwide (median: 273 kW).
Its antenna sits 562 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 78 miles with an outdoor antenna. That area includes 113 cities and towns in our guide with about 915,000 residents, as far as Wilmington, NC (70 miles).
WUNM-TV shares its transmitter site with WCTI-TV (ABC) and WYDO. One antenna aimed at this site picks up all of them.
