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

The farthest main network tower for Atlantis is WLRN-TV (PBS), 43 miles away with a good estimated signal. That is why we suggest an amplified indoor or attic antenna here. Skip that station and you may get away with a smaller antenna.

WPEC is only 6.6 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.

With 29 stations at fair strength or better, Atlantis ranks 214th of 786 places in Florida: more than the typical Florida town (23). Its nearest major network tower is 6.6 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 Lake Worth Corridor, 1.8 miles away.
