With roughly 2,900 residents, Wareham Center is a town in Massachusetts. Within 70 miles of the town center we count 36 licensed TV transmitters: 23 full-power, 4 Class A, 8 low-power and 1 translator. 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.

By distance, 2 transmitters are within 25 miles, 16 between 25 and 45 miles, and 18 farther out. Five of the 15 network stations in range are licensed to Providence, RI, so most of the network channels you will find here come from Providence's stations.

The best-placed network stations are ABC on channel 10.2 (WJAR), CBS on channel 4 (WBZ-TV), NBC on channel 15 (WBTS-CD), Fox on channel 25 (WFXT), CW on channel 56 (WLVI), ION on channel 68 (WBPX-TV), Telemundo on channel 60 (WNEU), Univision on channel 66 (WUNI) and MeTV on channel 6.5 (WLNE-TV). Spanish-language viewers can pick up Telemundo (good signal) and Univision (fair signal). 11 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 NW, at about 305°. The main network towers for Wareham Center sit in that direction, so a single directional antenna can pick them all up.

Six network stations, WFXT, WLVI, WBTS-CD, WBZ-TV and WNEU and others, transmit from the same tower site about 45 miles northwest of Wareham Center (326° NW). That one direction covers every station on the site.

Of the 14 full-power and Class A network signals that reach Wareham Center at fair strength or better, 57% arrive from the northwest; the rest are spread across one other direction.

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

The farthest main network tower for Wareham Center is WFXT (Fox), 45 miles away with a good estimated signal. That is why we suggest an amplified indoor or attic antenna here.

WBZ-TV (CBS), 46 miles northwest and WBTS-CD (NBC), 46 miles northwest, 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, Wareham Center ranks 222nd of 390 places in Massachusetts: fewer than the typical Massachusetts town (29). Its nearest major network tower is 27 miles away, against a state median of 19 miles.

63% of Massachusetts's cities and towns get the same recommendation: an amplified indoor or attic antenna. The nearest larger city is Middleborough, 13 miles away.
