Based on each transmitter's power, antenna height and distance, 34 are likely to arrive at fair strength or better, and 18 at good or strong strength.
32 of them are within 25 miles of Kendall, 1 sit 25 to 45 miles away and 6 are more than 45 miles out. Ten of the 15 network stations in range are licensed to Miami, so most of the network channels you will find here come from Miami's stations.

Which way to point your antenna in Kendall
Point your antenna NNE, at about 18°. The main network towers for Kendall 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 20 miles north of Kendall (19° NNE). That one direction covers every station on the site.
Of the 12 full-power and Class A network signals that reach Kendall at fair strength or better, all arrive from the north, so this is an easy place to aim.
All of the main network towers are within their radio horizon as seen from Kendall, so signals arrive fairly directly and a well-placed antenna should hold them steadily.
Antenna and amplifier advice for Kendall
The farthest main network tower for Kendall is WLRN-TV (PBS), 22 miles away with a strong estimated signal. That is why we suggest an indoor antenna here.
WFLX (Fox), 62 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.

- Point it toward 20° NNE, the direction of WLRN-TV (PBS), 22 miles away. Closer stations usually come in even off-axis.
- Run a full channel scan on your TV (usually Settings → Channels → Auto program; the name varies by brand).
