About WUNP-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 248 kW effective radiated power, WUNP-TV runs more power than 48% of full-power TV stations nationwide (median: 273 kW).
Its antenna sits 364 m above the average surrounding terrain, higher than 48% of full-power stations. Taller antennas see farther: this one's radio horizon is roughly 57 miles, beyond which the signal fades quickly.
We estimate a fair-or-better signal out to about 64 miles with an outdoor antenna. That area includes 83 cities and towns in our guide with about 1,800,000 residents, as far as Morrisville, NC (64 miles).
