TV channels & antenna towers in Ozark, Alabama

With roughly 14,700 residents, Ozark is a town in Alabama. Within 70 miles of the town center we count 18 licensed TV transmitters: 9 full-power and 9 low-power. Based on each transmitter's power, antenna height and distance, 10 are likely to arrive at fair strength or better, and 5 at good or strong strength.

By distance, 7 transmitters are within 25 miles, 3 between 25 and 45 miles, and 8 farther out. Three of the 7 network stations in range are licensed to Dothan, so most of the network channels you will find here come from Dothan's stations.

The best-placed network stations are ABC on channel 18 (WDHN), NBC on channel 12 (WSFA), Fox on channel 34 (WDFX-TV) and CW on channel 4.3 (WTVY). No CBS affiliate is listed within 70 miles; the nearest one in our data is WRBL in Columbus, GA, 78 miles to the northeast. 3 full-power stations in range have no network listed in our data; these are typically public television, religious, shopping or independent stations.

The main network towers around Ozark are in different directions: ABC 128° SE (25 mi) and Fox 175° S (17 mi). Aim at the farthest one you want first, or use a multi-directional antenna.

Two network stations, WSFA and WCOV-TV, transmit from the same tower site about 47 miles northwest of Ozark (319° NW). Point at that site and a single antenna setting picks them all up.

Of the 6 full-power and Class A network signals that reach Ozark at fair strength or better, 50% arrive from the northwest; the rest are spread across two other directions.

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

The farthest main network tower for Ozark is WDHN (ABC), 25 miles away with a strong estimated signal. That is why we suggest an indoor antenna here.

WSFA (NBC), 47 miles northwest, is the exception: the nearest listed affiliate of its network is far enough away to need an outdoor antenna. Some local stations in our data carry no network tag, so check the other stations table below before buying a bigger antenna just for that one.

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.

With 10 stations at fair strength or better, Ozark ranks 257th of 314 places in Alabama: fewer than the typical Alabama town (16). Its nearest major network tower is 17 miles away, against a state median of 22 miles.

29% of Alabama's cities and towns get the same recommendation: an indoor antenna. The nearest larger city is Dothan, 22 miles away.
