Antenna and amplifier advice for Town and Country
The farthest main network tower for Town and Country is KMOV (CBS), 11 miles away with a strong estimated signal. That is why we suggest an indoor antenna here. Viewers who do not need that station can often manage with less.
KPLR-TV is only 7.2 miles away with a strong signal. Signals that strong can overload an amplifier, so start without one and add it only if distant channels are missing. Read when an amplifier helps.
