Four network stations, WAGA-TV, WUPA, WUVG-DT and WPCH-TV, transmit from the same tower site about 27 miles northwest of Oakwood (310° NW). Point at that site and a single antenna setting picks them all up.

Of the 9 full-power and Class A network signals that reach Oakwood at fair strength or better, all arrive from the northwest, so this is an easy place to aim.

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

The farthest main network tower for Oakwood is WUPA (CBS), 28 miles away with a good estimated signal. That is why we suggest an amplified indoor or attic antenna here. If you only watch the closer stations, a smaller antenna may do.

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 22 stations at fair strength or better, Oakwood ranks 81st of 386 places in Georgia: more than the typical Georgia town (15). Its nearest major network tower is 25 miles away, against a state median of 23 miles.
