6 of them are within 25 miles of Globe, 0 sit 25 to 45 miles away and 13 are more than 45 miles out. Five of the 6 network stations in range are licensed to Tucson, so most of the network channels you will find here come from Tucson's stations.

Spanish-language viewers can pick up Univision (fair signal). 1 full-power station in range has no network listed in our data; these are typically public television, religious, shopping or independent stations.

Of the 6 full-power and Class A network signals that reach Globe at fair strength or better, all arrive from the south, so this is an easy place to aim.

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

The farthest main network tower for Globe is KGUN-TV (ABC), 68 miles away with a fair estimated signal. That is why we suggest an outdoor directional antenna here. If you only watch the closer stations, a smaller antenna may do.

At this distance a low-noise preamplifier mounted on the mast, right below the antenna, helps more than an amplifier near the TV. It boosts the signal before cable loss eats into it. See the amplifier guide.
