TV channels & antenna towers in Greenville, Kentucky

Greenville is a town of about 4,400 people in Kentucky. Within 70 miles of the town center we count 43 licensed TV transmitters: 18 full-power, 4 Class A and 21 low-power. Based on each transmitter's power, antenna height and distance, 14 are likely to arrive at fair strength or better, and 2 at good or strong strength.

By distance, 1 transmitter is within 25 miles, 4 between 25 and 45 miles, and 38 farther out. Six of the 17 network stations in range are licensed to Evansville, IN, so most of the network channels you will find here come from Evansville's stations.

The strongest network signals here are ABC on channel 25 (WEHT), CBS on channel 5 (WTVF), NBC on channel 14 (WFIE), Fox on channel 44.2 (WEVV-TV), CW on channel 7 (WTVW), ION on channel 28 (WNPX-TV), Telemundo on channel 34 (WBGS-CD), MeTV on channel 44.1 (WJFB) and Trinity on channel 50 (WPGD-TV). Spanish-language viewers can pick up Telemundo (weak signal). 7 full-power stations in range have no network listed in our data; these are typically public television, religious, shopping or independent stations.

The main network towers around Greenville are in different directions: ABC 335° NNW (51 mi), CBS 161° SSE (68 mi), NBC 339° NNW (51 mi) and Fox 337° NNW (51 mi). Aim at the farthest one you want first, or use a multi-directional antenna.

Two network stations, WBKO and WBGS-CD, transmit from the same tower site about 42 miles east of Greenville (103° ESE). Point at that site and a single antenna setting picks them all up.

Of the 9 full-power and Class A network signals that reach Greenville at fair strength or better, 44% arrive from the south; the rest are spread across four other directions.

WTVF (CBS) lies beyond the radio horizon of its transmitter as seen from Greenville. Past that point signals fade quickly, so antenna height matters more than amplification.

The farthest main network tower for Greenville is WTVF (CBS), 68 miles away with a fair 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.

With 14 stations at fair strength or better, Greenville ranks 110th of 275 places in Kentucky: more than the typical Kentucky town (13). Its nearest major network tower is 42 miles away, against a state median of 25 miles.

29% of Kentucky's cities and towns get the same recommendation: an outdoor directional antenna. The nearest larger city is Hopkinsville, 29 miles away.
