Of the 7 full-power and Class A network signals that reach Galliano at fair strength or better, all arrive from the northeast, so this is an easy place to aim.

Antenna and amplifier advice for Galliano

The farthest main network tower for Galliano is WVUE-DT (Fox), 41 miles away with a good estimated signal. That is why we suggest an amplified indoor or attic antenna here. If you only watch the closer stations, a smaller antenna may do.

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.
