Which way to point your antenna in West Stockbridge

Point your antenna WNW, at about 301°. The main network towers for West Stockbridge sit in that direction, so a single directional antenna can pick them all up.

Six network stations, WXXA-TV, WCWN, WNYT, WRGB and WTEN and others, transmit from the same tower site about 38 miles northwest of West Stockbridge (301° WNW). Point at that site and a single antenna setting picks them all up.

Of the 14 full-power and Class A network signals that reach West Stockbridge at fair strength or better, 50% arrive from the southeast; the rest are spread across two other directions.

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

Antenna and amplifier advice for West Stockbridge

The farthest main network tower for West Stockbridge is WNYT (NBC), 38 miles away with a good estimated signal. That is why we suggest an amplified indoor or attic antenna here.

WTIC-TV (Fox), 52 miles southeast, is the exception: the nearest listed affiliate of its network is 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 that one.

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.

  2. Point it toward 301° WNW, the direction of WNYT (NBC), 38 miles away. Closer stations usually come in even off-axis.
  3. Run a full channel scan on your TV (usually Settings → Channels → Auto program; the name varies by brand).
