Which way to point your antenna in Berry

Point your antenna ESE, at about 104°. The main network towers for Berry sit in that direction, so a single directional antenna can pick them all up.

Seven network stations, WABM, WTTO, WIAT, WPXH-TV and WTBM-CD and others, transmit from the same tower site about 47 miles east of Berry (105° ESE). That one direction covers every station on the site.

Of the 7 full-power and Class A network signals that reach Berry at fair strength or better, 86% arrive from the east; the rest are spread across one other direction.

All of the main network towers are within their radio horizon as seen from Berry, so signals arrive fairly directly and a well-placed antenna should hold them steadily.

Antenna and amplifier advice for Berry

The farthest main network tower for Berry is WVTM-TV (NBC), 48 miles away with a fair estimated signal. That is why we suggest an outdoor directional antenna here. Viewers who do not need that station can often manage with less.

WSFG-LD is only 2.8 miles away with a strong signal. Signals that strong can overload an amplifier, so start without one and add it only if distant channels are missing. Read when an amplifier helps.

Mount an outdoor antenna on the roof or a mast, as high as you can safely get it, with a clear view toward the towers.
Point it toward 104° ESE, the direction of WVTM-TV (NBC), 48 miles away. Closer stations usually come in even off-axis.
Run a full channel scan on your TV (usually Settings → Channels → Auto program; the name varies by brand).
