4 of them are within 25 miles of Five Points, 12 sit 25 to 45 miles away and 36 are more than 45 miles out. Six of the 13 network stations in range are licensed to Jacksonville, so most of the network channels you will find here come from Jacksonville's stations.

Point your antenna SSE, at about 166°. The main network towers for Five Points sit in that direction, so a single directional antenna can pick them all up.

Seven network stations, WFOX-TV, WJAX-TV, WJCT, WJEB-TV and WJXX and others, transmit from the same tower site about 64 miles east of Five Points (85° E). That one direction covers every station on the site.

Of the 6 full-power and Class A network signals that reach Five Points at fair strength or better, 33% arrive from the south; the rest are spread across four other directions.

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

The farthest main network tower for Five Points is WGFL (NBC), 40 miles away with a good estimated signal. That is why we suggest an amplified indoor or attic antenna here.

WJXX (ABC), 65 miles east, WJAX-TV (CBS), 64 miles east and WFOX-TV (Fox), 64 miles east, 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 10 stations at fair strength or better, Five Points ranks 748th of 786 places in Florida: fewer than the typical Florida town (23). Its nearest major network tower is 33 miles away, against a state median of 20 miles.
