Which way to point your antenna in Belle Rose

Point your antenna NNW, at about 328°. The main network towers for Belle Rose sit in that direction, so a single directional antenna can pick them all up.

Three network stations, WGMB-TV, WBRL-CD and WVLA-TV, transmit from the same tower site about 24 miles northwest of Belle Rose (324° NW). 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 Belle Rose at fair strength or better, 56% arrive from the northwest; the rest are spread across three other directions.

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

Antenna and amplifier advice for Belle Rose

The farthest main network tower for Belle Rose is WVLA-TV (NBC), 24 miles away with a strong estimated signal. That is why we suggest an indoor antenna here.

WWL-TV (CBS), 61 miles east and WVUE-DT (Fox), 66 miles east, 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.

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.
