TV channels & antenna towers in Camden, Delaware

Camden is a town of about 3,510 people in Delaware. Within 70 miles of the town center we count 54 licensed TV transmitters: 30 full-power, 6 Class A and 18 low-power. Based on each transmitter's power, antenna height and distance, 18 are likely to arrive at fair strength or better, and 2 at good or strong strength.

By distance, 0 transmitters are within 25 miles, 13 between 25 and 45 miles, and 41 farther out. Five of the 20 network stations in range are licensed to Baltimore, MD, so most of the network channels you will find here come from Baltimore's stations.

The strongest network signals here are ABC on channel 2 (WMAR-TV), CBS on channel 3 (KYW-TV), NBC on channel 10 (WCAU), Fox on channel 21.2 (WBOC-TV), PBS on channel 64 (WDPB), CW on channel 47.2 (WMDT), ION on channel 61 (WPPX-TV), Telemundo on channel 62 (WWSI), Univision on channel 65 (WUVP-DT) and MeTV on channel 2.1 (WDPN-TV). Spanish-language viewers can pick up Telemundo (fair signal) and Univision (weak signal). 13 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 S, at about 187°. The main network towers for Camden sit in that direction, so a single directional antenna can pick them all up.

Nine network stations, WTXF-TV, WUVP-DT, WPHL-TV, KYW-TV and WDPN-TV and others, transmit from the same tower site about 66 miles north of Camden (14° NNE). Aim there first: one setting covers all of them.

Of the 10 full-power and Class A network signals that reach Camden at fair strength or better, 40% 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 Camden, so signals arrive fairly directly and a well-placed antenna should hold them steadily.

The farthest main network tower for Camden is WBOC-TV (Fox), 42 miles away with a good estimated signal. That is why we suggest an amplified indoor or attic antenna here.

WMAR-TV (ABC), 61 miles west, KYW-TV (CBS), 66 miles north and WCAU (NBC), 66 miles north, 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.

With 18 stations at fair strength or better, Camden ranks 28th of 51 places in Delaware: fewer than the typical Delaware town (20). Its nearest major network tower is 32 miles away, against a state median of 29 miles.

69% of Delaware's cities and towns get the same recommendation: an amplified indoor or attic antenna. The nearest larger city is Dover, 3.2 miles away.
