No CBS affiliate is listed within 70 miles; the nearest one in our data is WCAX-TV in Burlington, VT, 134 miles to the west. 3 full-power stations in range have no network listed in our data; these are typically public television, religious, shopping or independent stations.

Three network stations, WIPL, WPXT and WMTW, transmit from the same tower site about 39 miles southwest of Greene (233° SW). That one direction covers every station on the site.

Of the 5 full-power and Class A network signals that reach Greene at fair strength or better, all arrive from the southwest, so this is an easy place to aim.

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

The farthest main network tower for Greene is WMTW (ABC), 39 miles away with a fair estimated signal. That is why we suggest an amplified indoor or attic antenna here. Viewers who do not need that station can often manage with less.

WCBB is only 6.9 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.
