Based on each transmitter's power, antenna height and distance, 44 are likely to arrive at fair strength or better, and 13 at good or strong strength.
23 of them are within 25 miles of Florence, 7 sit 25 to 45 miles away and 49 are more than 45 miles out. Six of the 20 network stations in range are licensed to New York, NY, so most of the network channels you will find here come from New York's stations.

Which way to point your antenna in Florence
Point your antenna WSW, at about 257°. The main network towers for Florence sit in that direction, so a single directional antenna can pick them all up.
Nine network stations, WDPN-TV, WWSI, WCAU, WTXF-TV and WUVP-DT and others, transmit from the same tower site about 23 miles west of Florence (257° WSW). Aim there first: one setting covers all of them.
Of the 16 full-power and Class A network signals that reach Florence at fair strength or better, 56% arrive from the west; the rest are spread across two other directions.
All of the main network towers are within their radio horizon as seen from Florence, so signals arrive fairly directly and a well-placed antenna should hold them steadily.
Antenna and amplifier advice for Florence
The farthest main network tower for Florence is KYW-TV (CBS), 24 miles away with a strong estimated signal. That is why we suggest an amplified indoor or attic antenna here. If you only watch the closer stations, a smaller antenna may do.
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.
