TV channels & antenna towers in Milton, Florida

With roughly 9,630 residents, Milton is a town in Florida. Our map shows 28 licensed TV transmitters inside a 70-mile radius: 16 full-power, 2 Class A and 10 low-power. Based on each transmitter's power, antenna height and distance, 19 are likely to arrive at fair strength or better, and 13 at good or strong strength.

5 of them are within 25 miles of Milton, 12 sit 25 to 45 miles away and 11 are more than 45 miles out. Four of the 8 network stations in range are licensed to Mobile, AL, so most of the network channels you will find here come from Mobile's stations.

The best-placed network stations are ABC on channel 3 (WEAR-TV), CBS on channel 5 (WKRG-TV), Fox on channel 10 (WALA-TV), PBS on channel 23 (WSRE), CW on channel 55 (WFNA), Telemundo on channel 31 (WMBP-LD) and Trinity on channel 21 (WMPV-TV). No NBC affiliate is listed within 70 miles; the nearest one in our data is WJHG-TV in Panama City, FL, 100 miles to the east. Spanish-language viewers can pick up Telemundo (very weak signal). 9 full-power stations in range have no network listed in our data; these are typically public television, religious, shopping or independent stations.

Point your antenna W, at about 268°. The main network towers for Milton sit in that direction, so a single directional antenna can pick them all up.

Three network stations, WSRE, WMPV-TV and WEAR-TV, transmit from the same tower site about 34 miles west of Milton (268° W). That one direction covers every station on the site.

Of the 6 full-power and Class A network signals that reach Milton at fair strength or better, all arrive from the west, so this is an easy place to aim.

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

The farthest main network tower for Milton is WEAR-TV (ABC), 36 miles away with a good estimated signal. That is why we suggest an amplified indoor or attic antenna here.

WKRG-TV (CBS), 47 miles west and WALA-TV (Fox), 45 miles west, 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 19 stations at fair strength or better, Milton ranks 514th of 786 places in Florida: fewer than the typical Florida town (23). Its nearest major network tower is 34 miles away, against a state median of 20 miles.

60% of Florida's cities and towns get the same recommendation: an amplified indoor or attic antenna. The nearest larger city is Pace, 7.6 miles away.
