WTXF-TV (Fox) lies beyond the radio horizon of its transmitter as seen from Belvidere. Past that point signals fade quickly, so antenna height matters more than amplification.

The farthest main network tower for Belvidere is WTXF-TV (Fox), 55 miles away with a good estimated signal. That is why we suggest an outdoor directional antenna here. Skip that station and you may get away with a smaller antenna.

At this distance a low-noise preamplifier mounted on the mast, right below the antenna, helps more than an amplifier near the TV. It boosts the signal before cable loss eats into it. See the amplifier guide.

With 40 stations at fair strength or better, Belvidere ranks 115th of 537 places in New Jersey: more than the typical New Jersey town (37). Its nearest major network tower is 26 miles away, against a state median of 26 miles.
