Which way to point your antenna in Kaser

Point your antenna S, at about 173°. The main network towers for Kaser sit in that direction, so a single directional antenna can pick them all up.

Five network stations, WCBS-TV, WNYW, WNBC, WNJU and WPXN-TV, transmit from the same tower site about 28 miles south of Kaser (174° S). Point at that site and a single antenna setting picks them all up.

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

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

Antenna and amplifier advice for Kaser

The farthest main network tower for Kaser is WNYW (Fox), 28 miles away with a good 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.
