TV channels & antenna towers in Clovis, California

With roughly 104,000 residents, Clovis is a city in California. Our map shows 33 licensed TV transmitters inside a 70-mile radius: 13 full-power, 4 Class A, 15 low-power and 1 translator. Based on each transmitter's power, antenna height and distance, 23 are likely to arrive at fair strength or better, and 9 at good or strong strength.

By distance, 23 transmitters are within 25 miles, 1 between 25 and 45 miles, and 9 farther out. Three of the 10 network stations in range are licensed to Fresno, so most of the network channels you will find here come from Fresno's stations.

The best-placed network stations are ABC on channel 30 (KFSN-TV), CBS on channel 47 (KGPE), NBC on channel 24 (KSEE), Fox on channel 26 (KMPH-TV), CW on channel 59 (KFRE-TV), ION on channel 13 (KVBC-LD), Telemundo on channel 51 (KNSO), Univision on channel 21 (KFTV-DT) and MeTV on channel 43.6 (KGMC). Spanish-language viewers can pick up Telemundo (good signal) and Univision (good signal). 5 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 NE, at about 41°. The main network towers for Clovis sit in that direction, so a single directional antenna can pick them all up.

Seven network stations, KNSO, KFTV-DT, KGMC, KSEE and KGPE and others, transmit from the same tower site about 23 miles northeast of Clovis (41° NE). That one direction covers every station on the site.

Of the 8 full-power and Class A network signals that reach Clovis at fair strength or better, 88% arrive from the northeast; the rest are spread across one other direction.

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

The farthest main network tower for Clovis is KFSN-TV (ABC), 23 miles away with a good estimated signal. That is why we suggest an indoor antenna here.

KMPH-TV (Fox), 47 miles east, 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 23 stations at fair strength or better, Clovis ranks 554th of 1,078 places in California: fewer than the typical California town (25). Its nearest major network tower is 23 miles away, against a state median of 22 miles.

22% of California's cities and towns get the same recommendation: an indoor antenna. The nearest larger city is Fresno, 6.6 miles away.
