Which way to point your antenna in Inglis

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

Of the 4 full-power and Class A network signals that reach Inglis at fair strength or better, 50% arrive from the northeast; the rest are spread across one other direction.

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

Antenna and amplifier advice for Inglis

The farthest main network tower for Inglis is WGFL (NBC), 42 miles away with a good estimated signal. That is why we suggest an amplified indoor or attic antenna here.

WUFT (PBS), 50 miles north, is the exception: the nearest listed affiliate of its network is 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 that one.

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.

  2. Point it toward 8° N, the direction of WGFL (NBC), 42 miles away. Closer stations usually come in even off-axis.
  3. Run a full channel scan on your TV (usually Settings → Channels → Auto program; the name varies by brand).

  5. Rescan every few months, or whenever a channel disappears; stations occasionally change frequency.
