4 of them are within 25 miles of Homestead, 29 sit 25 to 45 miles away and 1 is more than 45 miles out. Ten of the 11 network stations in range are licensed to Miami, so most of the network channels you will find here come from Miami's stations.

Point your antenna NNE, at about 25°. The main network towers for Homestead sit in that direction, so a single directional antenna can pick them all up.

Nine network stations, WPXM-TV, WBFS-TV, WFOR-TV, WLTV-DT and WTVJ and others, transmit from the same tower site about 38 miles northeast of Homestead (26° NNE). Point at that site and a single antenna setting picks them all up.

Of the 10 full-power and Class A network signals that reach Homestead at fair strength or better, all arrive from the northeast, so this is an easy place to aim.

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

The farthest main network tower for Homestead is WLRN-TV (PBS), 39 miles away with a good estimated signal. That is why we suggest an amplified indoor or attic antenna here. If you only watch the closer stations, a smaller antenna may do.

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.
