20 of them are within 25 miles of Woodland Park, 7 sit 25 to 45 miles away and 36 are more than 45 miles out. Five of the 14 network stations in range are licensed to Colorado Springs, so most of the network channels you will find here come from Colorado Springs's stations.

Which way to point your antenna in Woodland Park
Point your antenna SSE, at about 149°. The main network towers for Woodland Park sit in that direction, so a single directional antenna can pick them all up.
Five network stations, KRDO-TV, KKTV, KXRM-TV, KOAA-TV and KVSN-DT, transmit from the same tower site about 20 miles southeast of Woodland Park (148° SSE). That one direction covers every station on the site.
Of the 12 full-power and Class A network signals that reach Woodland Park at fair strength or better, 50% arrive from the north; the rest are spread across two other directions.
All of the main network towers are within their radio horizon as seen from Woodland Park, so signals arrive fairly directly and a well-placed antenna should hold them steadily.
Antenna and amplifier advice for Woodland Park
The farthest main network tower for Woodland Park is KOAA-TV (NBC), 20 miles away with a strong estimated signal. That is why we suggest an indoor antenna here.
KDVR (Fox), 52 miles north and KBDI-TV (PBS), 53 miles northwest, 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.
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.
