TV channels & antenna towers in Perry, Georgia

Perry is a city of about 15,500 people in Georgia. Within 70 miles of the town center we count 35 licensed TV transmitters: 14 full-power, 1 Class A, 19 low-power and 1 translator. Based on each transmitter's power, antenna height and distance, 16 are likely to arrive at fair strength or better, and 8 at good or strong strength.

By distance, 12 transmitters are within 25 miles, 5 between 25 and 45 miles, and 18 farther out. Four of the 12 network stations in range are licensed to Macon, so most of the network channels you will find here come from Macon's stations.

The best-placed network stations are ABC on channel 24.2 (WGXA), CBS on channel 3 (WRBL), NBC on channel 41 (WMGT-TV), Fox on channel 54 (WXTX), CW on channel 13.2 (WMAZ-TV), ION on channel 58.3 (WPGA-TV) and MeTV on channel 55.2 (WSST-TV). 5 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 NNE, at about 26°. The main network towers for Perry sit in that direction, so a single directional antenna can pick them all up.

Four network stations, WGXA, WPGA-TV, WMGT-TV and WMAZ-TV, transmit from the same tower site about 22 miles northeast of Perry (26° NNE). Point at that site and a single antenna setting picks them all up.

Of the 7 full-power and Class A network signals that reach Perry at fair strength or better, 57% arrive from the northeast; the rest are spread across two other directions.

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

The farthest main network tower for Perry is WMGT-TV (NBC), 23 miles away with a good estimated signal. That is why we suggest an indoor antenna here.

WRBL (CBS), 63 miles west and WXTX (Fox), 67 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 16 stations at fair strength or better, Perry ranks 161st of 386 places in Georgia: more than the typical Georgia town (15). Its nearest major network tower is 22 miles away, against a state median of 23 miles.

29% of Georgia's cities and towns get the same recommendation: an indoor antenna. The nearest larger city is Warner Robins, 12 miles away.
