TV channels & antenna towers in Williamsburg, Florida

Williamsburg is a town of about 7,650 people in Florida. Within 70 miles of the town center we count 61 licensed TV transmitters: 29 full-power, 11 Class A, 19 low-power and 2 translators. Based on each transmitter's power, antenna height and distance, 34 are likely to arrive at fair strength or better, and 21 at good or strong strength.

16 of them are within 25 miles of Williamsburg, 13 sit 25 to 45 miles away and 32 are more than 45 miles out. Six of the 21 network stations in range are licensed to Tampa, so most of the network channels you will find here come from Tampa's stations.

For the networks, the best local options are ABC on channel 9 (WFTV), CBS on channel 6 (WKMG-TV), NBC on channel 2 (WESH), Fox on channel 35 (WOFL), PBS on channel 24 (WUCF-TV), CW on channel 18 (WKCF), ION on channel 56 (WOPX-TV), Telemundo on channel 31 (WTMO-CD), Univision on channel 43 (WVEN-TV), MeTV on channel 32.2 (WMOR-TV) and Trinity on channel 52 (WHLV-TV). Spanish-language viewers can pick up Telemundo (fair signal) and Univision (strong signal). 10 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 ENE, at about 60°. The main network towers for Williamsburg sit in that direction, so a single directional antenna can pick them all up.

Seven network stations, WUCF-TV, WVEN-TV, WHLV-TV, WKCF and WOFL and others, transmit from the same tower site about 25 miles northeast of Williamsburg (58° ENE). That one direction covers every station on the site.

Of the 19 full-power and Class A network signals that reach Williamsburg at fair strength or better, 47% arrive from the southwest; the rest are spread across three other directions.

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

The farthest main network tower for Williamsburg is WESH (NBC), 27 miles away with a fair estimated signal. That is why we suggest an amplified indoor or attic antenna here. Skip that station and you may get away with a smaller antenna.

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 34 stations at fair strength or better, Williamsburg ranks 130th of 786 places in Florida: more than the typical Florida town (23). Its nearest major network tower is 13 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 Oak Ridge, 4.1 miles away.
