With roughly 14,100 residents, Jasper is a town in Alabama. Within 70 miles of the town center we count 38 licensed TV transmitters: 13 full-power, 6 Class A, 17 low-power and 2 translators. Based on each transmitter's power, antenna height and distance, 13 are likely to arrive at fair strength or better, and 9 at good or strong strength.

2 of them are within 25 miles of Jasper, 22 sit 25 to 45 miles away and 14 are more than 45 miles out. Six of the 11 network stations in range are licensed to Birmingham, so most of the network channels you will find here come from Birmingham's stations.

For the networks, the best local options are ABC on channel 68.2 (WABM), CBS on channel 42 (WIAT), NBC on channel 13 (WVTM-TV), Fox on channel 6 (WBRC), CW on channel 17 (WDBB), ION on channel 44 (WPXH-TV), Telemundo on channel 24 (WTBM-CD) and Trinity on channel 60 (WTJP-TV). Spanish-language viewers can pick up Telemundo (weak signal). 4 full-power stations in range have no network listed in our data; these are typically public television, religious, shopping or independent stations.

Point your antenna SE, at about 131°. The main network towers for Jasper 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 36 miles southeast of Jasper (131° SE). That one direction covers every station on the site.

Of the 9 full-power and Class A network signals that reach Jasper at fair strength or better, 67% arrive from the southeast; the rest are spread across two other directions.

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

The farthest main network tower for Jasper is WVTM-TV (NBC), 36 miles away with a fair estimated signal. That is why we suggest an amplified indoor or attic antenna here. Skip that station and you may get away with a smaller antenna.

W25FC-D is only 2.0 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.

With 13 stations at fair strength or better, Jasper ranks 187th of 314 places in Alabama: fewer than the typical Alabama town (16). Its nearest major network tower is 26 miles away, against a state median of 22 miles.
