Antenna and amplifier advice for Beechwood Village
The farthest main network tower for Beechwood Village is WHAS-TV (ABC), 14 miles away with a fair estimated signal. That is why we suggest an amplified indoor or attic antenna here. Skip that station and you may get away with a smaller antenna.
WAVE is only 13 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.
