Point your antenna NW, at about 308°. The main network towers for Berlin sit in that direction, so a single directional antenna can pick them all up.

Of the 3 full-power and Class A network signals that reach Berlin at fair strength or better, all arrive from the northwest, so this is an easy place to aim.

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

The farthest main network tower for Berlin is WDPB (PBS), 31 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.

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.

With 10 stations at fair strength or better, Berlin ranks 325th of 346 places in Maryland: fewer than the typical Maryland town (32). Its nearest major network tower is 22 miles away, against a state median of 16 miles.
