Antenna and amplifier advice for Meadow Woods

The farthest main network tower for Meadow Woods is WESH (NBC), 24 miles away with a good estimated signal. That is why we suggest an indoor antenna here. Viewers who do not need that station can often manage with less.

WHDO-CD is only 1.8 miles away with a strong signal. Signals that strong can overload an amplifier, so start without one and add it only if distant channels are missing. Read when an amplifier helps.
