Of the 9 full-power and Class A network signals that reach Florence at fair strength or better, all arrive from the northwest, so this is an easy place to aim.

Antenna and amplifier advice for Florence
The farthest main network tower for Florence is WPVI-TV (ABC), 27 miles away with a fair estimated signal. That is why we suggest an amplified indoor or attic antenna here. Viewers who do not need that station can often manage with less.
WNJT is only 4.0 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.
