Which way to point your antenna in Warrensburg
Point your antenna S, at about 191°. The main network towers for Warrensburg sit in that direction, so a single directional antenna can pick them all up.
Six network stations, WYPX-TV, WXXA-TV, WCWN, WNYT and WRGB and others, transmit from the same tower site about 60 miles south of Warrensburg (191° S). Point at that site and a single antenna setting picks them all up.
Of the 6 full-power and Class A network signals that reach Warrensburg at fair strength or better, 83% arrive from the south; the rest are spread across one other direction.
WTEN (ABC), WRGB (CBS), WNYT (NBC) and WXXA-TV (Fox) lie beyond the radio horizon of their transmitter as seen from Warrensburg. Past that point signals fade quickly, so antenna height matters more than amplification.
Antenna and amplifier advice for Warrensburg
The farthest main network tower for Warrensburg is WXXA-TV (Fox), 61 miles away with a weak estimated signal. That is why we suggest an outdoor directional antenna here. If you only watch the closer stations, a smaller antenna may do.
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.
