Two network stations, WLTZ and WXTX, transmit from the same tower site about 33 miles southeast of Huguley (142° SE). Aim there first: one setting covers all of them.

Of the 4 full-power and Class A network signals that reach Huguley at fair strength or better, all arrive from the southeast, so this is an easy place to aim.

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

Antenna and amplifier advice for Huguley

The farthest main network tower for Huguley is WRBL (CBS), 44 miles away with a good estimated signal. That is why we suggest an amplified indoor or attic antenna here. If you only watch the closer stations, a smaller antenna may do.

An amplifier only helps here if you run a long cable (over about 50 feet) or split the antenna to several TVs. Otherwise better placement does more. See the amplifier guide.
