Oviedo is a city of about 38,600 people in Florida. Within 70 miles of the town center we count 38 licensed TV transmitters: 16 full-power, 9 Class A, 12 low-power and 1 translator. Based on each transmitter's power, antenna height and distance, 28 are likely to arrive at fair strength or better, and 19 at good or strong strength.

26 of them are within 25 miles of Oviedo, 3 sit 25 to 45 miles away and 9 are more than 45 miles out. Five of the 11 network stations in range are licensed to Orlando, so most of the network channels you will find here come from Orlando's stations.

Point your antenna ESE, at about 120°. The main network towers for Oviedo sit in that direction, so a single directional antenna can pick them all up.

Seven network stations, WUCF-TV, WOFL, WVEN-TV, WHLV-TV and WKCF and others, transmit from the same tower site about 8.4 miles southeast of Oviedo (124° SE). Aim there first: one setting covers all of them.

Of the 10 full-power and Class A network signals that reach Oviedo at fair strength or better, 90% arrive from the southeast; the rest are spread across one other direction.

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

The farthest main network tower for Oviedo is WFTV (ABC), 12 miles away with a strong estimated signal. That is why we suggest an indoor antenna here. If you only watch the closer stations, a smaller antenna may do.

WTGL is only 8.4 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.

With 28 stations at fair strength or better, Oviedo ranks 251st of 786 places in Florida: more than the typical Florida town (23). Its nearest major network tower is 8.4 miles away, against a state median of 20 miles.
