Four network stations, WAGA-TV, WUPA, WUVG-DT and WPCH-TV, transmit from the same tower site about 44 miles west of Statham (255° WSW). Aim there first: one setting covers all of them.

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

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

The farthest main network tower for Statham is WXIA-TV (NBC), 45 miles away with a fair estimated signal. That is why we suggest an amplified indoor or attic antenna here.

WSB-TV (ABC), 46 miles west, is the exception: the nearest listed affiliate of its network is 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 that one.

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.
