For the networks, the best local options are ABC on channel 16 (WNEP-TV), CBS on channel 3 (KYW-TV), NBC on channel 10 (WCAU), Fox on channel 29 (WTXF-TV), CW on channel 17 (WPHL-TV), ION on channel 61 (WPPX-TV), Telemundo on channel 62 (WWSI), Univision on channel 65 (WUVP-DT) and MeTV on channel 69.3 (WFMZ-TV). Spanish-language viewers can pick up Telemundo (good signal) and Univision (good signal). 21 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 SSW, at about 203°. The main network towers for Clinton sit in that direction, so a single directional antenna can pick them all up.

Nine network stations, WPVI-TV, WPPX-TV, WDPN-TV, WWSI and WCAU and others, transmit from the same tower site about 44 miles southwest of Clinton (203° SSW). Aim there first: one setting covers all of them.

Of the 23 full-power and Class A network signals that reach Clinton at fair strength or better, 39% arrive from the southwest; the rest are spread across three other directions.

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

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

WNEP-TV (ABC), 63 miles northwest, 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.

With 43 stations at fair strength or better, Clinton ranks 59th of 537 places in New Jersey: more than the typical New Jersey town (37). Its nearest major network tower is 28 miles away, against a state median of 26 miles.
