Oxford is a small community of about 1,090 people in New Jersey. Within 70 miles of the town center we count 92 licensed TV transmitters: 43 full-power, 13 Class A, 28 low-power and 8 translators. Based on each transmitter's power, antenna height and distance, 41 are likely to arrive at fair strength or better, and 21 at good or strong strength.

2 of them are within 25 miles of Oxford, 11 sit 25 to 45 miles away and 79 are more than 45 miles out. Six of the 26 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.

Spanish-language viewers can pick up Telemundo (good signal) and Univision (good signal). 18 full-power stations in range have no network listed in our data; these are typically public television, religious, shopping or independent stations.

The main network towers around Oxford are in different directions: ABC 300° WNW (53 mi), CBS 194° SSW (54 mi), NBC 194° SSW (54 mi) and Fox 194° SSW (54 mi). Aim at the farthest one you want first, or use a multi-directional antenna.

Nine network stations, WPVI-TV, WPPX-TV, WDPN-TV, WWSI and WCAU and others, transmit from the same tower site about 54 miles south of Oxford (194° SSW). Point at that site and a single antenna setting picks them all up.

Of the 25 full-power and Class A network signals that reach Oxford at fair strength or better, 36% arrive from the east; the rest are spread across three other directions.

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

The farthest main network tower for Oxford is WTXF-TV (Fox), 54 miles away with a good estimated signal. That is why we suggest an outdoor directional antenna here. Viewers who do not need that station can often manage with less.

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 41 stations at fair strength or better, Oxford ranks 95th of 537 places in New Jersey: more than the typical New Jersey town (37). Its nearest major network tower is 29 miles away, against a state median of 26 miles.

17% of New Jersey's cities and towns get the same recommendation: an outdoor directional antenna. The nearest larger city is Easton, 14 miles away.
