The farthest main network tower for Pea Ridge is KFSM-TV (CBS), 43 miles away with a good estimated signal. That is why we suggest an amplified indoor or attic antenna here.

KODE-TV (ABC), 49 miles northwest and KFTA-TV (Fox), 51 miles south, are the exception: the nearest listed affiliates of those networks are 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 those.

KNWA-TV is only 9.4 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 21 stations at fair strength or better, Pea Ridge ranks 8th of 214 places in Arkansas: more than the typical Arkansas town (10). Its nearest major network tower is 9.4 miles away, against a state median of 29 miles.
