By distance, 28 transmitters are within 25 miles, 7 between 25 and 45 miles, and 24 farther out. Six of the 17 network stations in range are licensed to Denver, so most of the network channels you will find here come from Denver's stations.

All of the main network towers are within their radio horizon as seen from Evergreen, so signals arrive fairly directly and a well-placed antenna should hold them steadily.
Antenna and amplifier advice for Evergreen
The farthest main network tower for Evergreen is KBDI-TV (PBS), 10 miles away with a good estimated signal. That is why we suggest an indoor antenna here. Viewers who do not need that station can often manage with less.
KETD is only 5.9 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.
