Point your antenna N, at about 353°. The main network towers for Tivoli sit in that direction, so a single directional antenna can pick them all up.

Six network stations, WXXA-TV, WCWN, WNYT, WRGB and WTEN and others, transmit from the same tower site about 40 miles north of Tivoli (353° N). That one direction covers every station on the site.

Of the 12 full-power and Class A network signals that reach Tivoli at fair strength or better, 50% arrive from the north; the rest are spread across two other directions.

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

The farthest main network tower for Tivoli is WNYT (NBC), 40 miles away with a good estimated signal. That is why we suggest an amplified indoor or attic antenna here.

WTIC-TV (Fox), 61 miles southeast, 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.
