Over-the-air TV in Greenland

With roughly 1,390 residents, Greenland is a small community in Arkansas. Our map shows 30 licensed TV transmitters inside a 70-mile radius: 8 full-power, 6 Class A and 16 low-power. Based on each transmitter's power, antenna height and distance, 18 are likely to arrive at fair strength or better, and 14 at good or strong strength.

By distance, 14 transmitters are within 25 miles, 10 between 25 and 45 miles, and 6 farther out. Three of the 7 network stations in range are licensed to Fort Smith, so most of the network channels you will find here come from Fort Smith's stations.

The best-placed network stations are CBS on channel 5 (KFSM-TV), NBC on channel 51 (KNWA-TV), Fox on channel 24 (KFTA-TV), CW on channel 29.2 (KHOG-TV), Univision on channel 14 (KWNL-CD) and MeTV on channel 8 (KXMP-LD). No ABC affiliate is listed within 70 miles; the nearest one in our data is KODE-TV in Joplin, MO, 78 miles to the north.

Which way to point your antenna in Greenland

The main network towers around Greenland are in different directions: CBS 175° S (11 mi), NBC 23° NNE (31 mi) and Fox 174° S (20 mi). Aim at the farthest one you want first, or use a multi-directional antenna.

Of the 6 full-power and Class A network signals that reach Greenland at fair strength or better, 33% arrive from the south; the rest are spread across four other directions.

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

Antenna and amplifier advice for Greenland

The farthest main network tower for Greenland is KNWA-TV (NBC), 31 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.

KWOG is only 5.1 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.

Setting up an antenna in Greenland: step by step

  1. Mount the antenna in the attic or high on the wall facing the towers, keeping the cable to the TV as short as you can.
  2. Point it toward 23° NNE, the direction of KNWA-TV (NBC), 31 miles away. Closer stations usually come in even off-axis.
  3. Run a full channel scan on your TV (usually Settings → Channels → Auto program; the name varies by brand).
  4. Expect around 18 stations, each with a few subchannels. If one you want is missing, turn the antenna 5–10° toward it and scan again.
  5. Rescan every few months, or whenever a channel disappears; stations occasionally change frequency.
