TV channels & antenna towers in Easton, Maryland

With roughly 16,600 residents, Easton is a town in Maryland. Our map shows 50 licensed TV transmitters inside a 70-mile radius: 24 full-power, 7 Class A, 17 low-power and 2 translators. Based on each transmitter's power, antenna height and distance, 27 are likely to arrive at fair strength or better, and 10 at good or strong strength.

3 of them are within 25 miles of Easton, 11 sit 25 to 45 miles away and 36 are more than 45 miles out. Nine of the 22 network stations in range are licensed to Washington, DC, so most of the network channels you will find here come from Washington's stations.

The strongest network signals here are ABC on channel 2 (WMAR-TV), CBS on channel 13 (WJZ-TV), NBC on channel 4 (WRC-TV), Fox on channel 21.2 (WBOC-TV), PBS on channel 64 (WDPB), CW on channel 47.2 (WMDT), ION on channel 66 (WPXW-TV), Telemundo on channel 44 (WZDC-CD), Univision on channel 14 (WFDC-DT) and MeTV on channel 48.1 (WDME-CD). Spanish-language viewers can pick up Telemundo (fair signal) and Univision (fair signal). 7 full-power stations in range have no network listed in our data; these are typically public television, religious, shopping or independent stations.

Point your antenna ESE, at about 118°. The main network towers for Easton sit in that direction, so a single directional antenna can pick them all up.

11 network stations, WDME-CD, WDCW, WRC-TV, WZDC-CD and WFDC-DT and others, transmit from the same tower site about 55 miles west of Easton (282° WNW). Aim there first: one setting covers all of them.

Of the 16 full-power and Class A network signals that reach Easton at fair strength or better, 50% arrive from the west; the rest are spread across three other directions.

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

The farthest main network tower for Easton is WBOC-TV (Fox), 30 miles away with a good estimated signal. That is why we suggest an amplified indoor or attic antenna here.

WMAR-TV (ABC), 49 miles northwest, WJZ-TV (CBS), 49 miles northwest and WRC-TV (NBC), 55 miles west, 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.

With 27 stations at fair strength or better, Easton ranks 245th of 346 places in Maryland: fewer than the typical Maryland town (32). Its nearest major network tower is 26 miles away, against a state median of 16 miles.
