Point your antenna NNE, at about 29°. The main network towers for Clay sit in that direction, so a single directional antenna can pick them all up.

Two network stations, WEHT and WEVV-TV, transmit from the same tower site about 30 miles northeast of Clay (27° NNE). Point at that site and a single antenna setting picks them all up.

Of the 6 full-power and Class A network signals that reach Clay at fair strength or better, 67% arrive from the northeast; the rest are spread across one other direction.

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

The farthest main network tower for Clay is WFIE (NBC), 33 miles away with a good estimated signal. That is why we suggest an amplified indoor or attic antenna here.

WSIL-TV (ABC), 58 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.
