Over-the-air TV in Bremen

With roughly 4,570 residents, Bremen is a town in Indiana. Within 70 miles of the town center we count 33 licensed TV transmitters: 13 full-power, 2 Class A, 17 low-power and 1 translator. Based on each transmitter's power, antenna height and distance, 14 are likely to arrive at fair strength or better, and 8 at good or strong strength.

By distance, 9 transmitters are within 25 miles, 1 between 25 and 45 miles, and 23 farther out. Six of the 10 network stations in range are licensed to South Bend, so most of the network channels you will find here come from South Bend's stations.

The best-placed network stations are ABC on channel 57 (WBND-LD), CBS on channel 15 (WANE-TV), NBC on channel 16 (WNDU-TV), Fox on channel 22.2 (WSBT-TV), CW on channel 25 (WCWW-LD), Telemundo on channel 69.2 (WMYS-LD) and Univision on channel 46 (WHME-TV). Spanish-language viewers can pick up Telemundo (good signal) and Univision (strong signal). 6 full-power stations in range have no network listed in our data; these are typically public television, religious, shopping or independent stations.

Which way to point your antenna in Bremen

Point your antenna NNW, at about 343°. The main network towers for Bremen sit in that direction, so a single directional antenna can pick them all up.

Two network stations, WNDU-TV and WSBT-TV, transmit from the same tower site about 11 miles north of Bremen (343° NNW). That one direction covers every station on the site.

Of the 7 full-power and Class A network signals that reach Bremen at fair strength or better, 57% 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 Bremen, so signals arrive fairly directly and a well-placed antenna should hold them steadily.

Antenna and amplifier advice for Bremen

The farthest main network tower for Bremen is WSBT-TV (Fox), 12 miles away with a strong estimated signal. That is why we suggest an indoor antenna here.

WPTA (ABC), 55 miles southeast and WANE-TV (CBS), 56 miles southeast, 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.

WHME-TV is only 10 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.

Setting up an antenna in Bremen: step by step

  1. Place the antenna high on a window or wall that faces the towers. Upstairs is better than downstairs.
  2. Point it toward 343° NNW, the direction of WSBT-TV (Fox), 12 miles away. Closer stations usually come in even off-axis.
  3. Run a full channel scan on your TV (usually Settings → Channels → Auto program; the name varies by brand).
  4. Expect around 14 stations, each with a few subchannels. If one you want is missing, turn the antenna 5–10° toward it and scan again.
  5. Rescan every few months, or whenever a channel disappears; stations occasionally change frequency.
