Which way to point your antenna in Flora

Point your antenna SSE, at about 159°. The main network towers for Flora sit in that direction, so a single directional antenna can pick them all up.

Two network stations, WPBY-CD and WPBI-CD, transmit from the same tower site about 20 miles southwest of Flora (240° WSW). That one direction covers every station on the site.

Of the 9 full-power and Class A network signals that reach Flora at fair strength or better, 56% arrive from the south; the rest are spread across two other directions.

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

Antenna and amplifier advice for Flora

The farthest main network tower for Flora is WXIN (Fox), 49 miles away with a good estimated signal. That is why we suggest an outdoor directional antenna here. Viewers who do not need that station can often manage with less.

At this distance a low-noise preamplifier mounted on the mast, right below the antenna, helps more than an amplifier near the TV. It boosts the signal before cable loss eats into it. See the amplifier guide.

Setting up an antenna in Flora: step by step

  1. Mount an outdoor antenna on the roof or a mast, as high as you can safely get it, with a clear view toward the towers.
  2. Point it toward 159° SSE, the direction of WXIN (Fox), 49 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 13 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.
