Which way to point your antenna in Cassopolis

Point your antenna SSW, at about 207°. The main network towers for Cassopolis sit in that direction, so a single directional antenna can pick them all up.

Two network stations, WSBT-TV and WNDU-TV, transmit from the same tower site about 23 miles southwest of Cassopolis (208° SSW). Aim there first: one setting covers all of them.

Of the 7 full-power and Class A network signals that reach Cassopolis at fair strength or better, 57% arrive from the northeast; the rest are spread across two other directions.

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

Antenna and amplifier advice for Cassopolis

The farthest main network tower for Cassopolis is WNDU-TV (NBC), 24 miles away with a good estimated signal. That is why we suggest an indoor antenna here.

WWMT (CBS), 55 miles northeast, 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.
