Which way to point your antenna in Clermont

Point your antenna E, at about 85°. The main network towers for Clermont sit in that direction, so a single directional antenna can pick them all up.

Seven network stations, WUCF-TV, WOFL, WVEN-TV, WHLV-TV and WKCF and others, transmit from the same tower site about 41 miles east of Clermont (85° E). Aim there first: one setting covers all of them.

Of the 20 full-power and Class A network signals that reach Clermont at fair strength or better, 50% arrive from the east; the rest are spread across one other direction.

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

Antenna and amplifier advice for Clermont

The farthest main network tower for Clermont is WFTV (ABC), 44 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.

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.
