With roughly 4,190 residents, Alturas is a town in Florida. Our map shows 61 licensed TV transmitters inside a 70-mile radius: 29 full-power, 11 Class A, 20 low-power and 1 translator. Based on each transmitter's power, antenna height and distance, 34 are likely to arrive at fair strength or better, and 16 at good or strong strength.

By distance, 1 transmitter is within 25 miles, 26 between 25 and 45 miles, and 34 farther out. Six of the 22 network stations in range are licensed to Tampa, so most of the network channels you will find here come from Tampa's stations.

For the networks, the best local options are ABC on channel 28 (WFTS-TV), CBS on channel 6 (WKMG-TV), NBC on channel 8 (WFLA-TV), Fox on channel 35 (WOFL), PBS on channel 24 (WUCF-TV), CW on channel 18 (WKCF), ION on channel 66 (WXPX-TV), Telemundo on channel 49 (WRMD-CD), Univision on channel 50 (WVEA-TV), MeTV on channel 32.2 (WMOR-TV) and Trinity on channel 52 (WHLV-TV). Spanish-language viewers can pick up Telemundo (fair signal) and Univision (good signal). 9 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 W, at about 267°. The main network towers for Alturas sit in that direction, so a single directional antenna can pick them all up.

11 network stations, WTVT, WTTA, WFTS-TV, WFLA-TV and WXPX-TV and others, transmit from the same tower site about 32 miles west of Alturas (264° W). That one direction covers every station on the site.

Of the 21 full-power and Class A network signals that reach Alturas at fair strength or better, 52% arrive from the west; the rest are spread across two other directions.

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

The farthest main network tower for Alturas is WFLA-TV (NBC), 33 miles away with a fair estimated signal. That is why we suggest an amplified indoor or attic antenna here.

WKMG-TV (CBS), 65 miles northeast, WOFL (Fox), 63 miles northeast and WUCF-TV (PBS), 63 miles northeast, 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 34 stations at fair strength or better, Alturas ranks 130th of 786 places in Florida: more than the typical Florida town (23). Its nearest major network tower is 32 miles away, against a state median of 20 miles.

60% of Florida's cities and towns get the same recommendation: an amplified indoor or attic antenna. The nearest larger city is Winter Haven, 10 miles away.
