Which way to point your antenna in Berkley

Point your antenna WSW, at about 246°. The main network towers for Berkley sit in that direction, so a single directional antenna can pick them all up.

Five network stations, KUSA, KMGH-TV, KCNC-TV, KWGN-TV and KDVR, transmit from the same tower site about 12 miles southwest of Berkley (245° WSW). Aim there first: one setting covers all of them.

Of the 11 full-power and Class A network signals that reach Berkley at fair strength or better, 55% arrive from the southwest; the rest are spread across three other directions.

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

Antenna and amplifier advice for Berkley

The farthest main network tower for Berkley is KBDI-TV (PBS), 26 miles away with a fair 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.

KCNC-TV is only 12 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.

  2. Point it toward 251° WSW, the direction of KBDI-TV (PBS), 26 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).
