9 of them are within 25 miles of Farmville, 9 sit 25 to 45 miles away and 15 are more than 45 miles out. Four of the 11 network stations in range are licensed to Raleigh, so most of the network channels you will find here come from Raleigh's stations.

The strongest network signals here are ABC on channel 12 (WCTI-TV), CBS on channel 17 (WNCN), NBC on channel 7 (WITN-TV), Fox on channel 50 (WRAZ), CW on channel 22 (WLFL), ION on channel 38 (WEPX-TV) and Telemundo on channel 54 (WRTD-CD). Spanish-language viewers can pick up Telemundo (good signal). 6 full-power stations in range have no network listed in our data; these are typically public television, religious, shopping or independent stations.

Point your antenna SSE, at about 152°. The main network towers for Farmville sit in that direction, so a single directional antenna can pick them all up.

Two network stations, WITN-TV and WNCT-TV, transmit from the same tower site about 19 miles southeast of Farmville (146° SE). Aim there first: one setting covers all of them.

Of the 11 full-power and Class A network signals that reach Farmville at fair strength or better, 55% arrive from the west; the rest are spread across two other directions.

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

The farthest main network tower for Farmville is WCTI-TV (ABC), 37 miles away with a fair estimated signal. That is why we suggest an amplified indoor or attic antenna here.

WNCN (CBS), 53 miles west and WRAZ (Fox), 53 miles west, are the exception: the nearest listed affiliates of those networks are 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 those.

WUNK-TV is only 3.1 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.

With 22 stations at fair strength or better, Farmville ranks 116th of 465 places in North Carolina: more than the typical North Carolina town (19). Its nearest major network tower is 19 miles away, against a state median of 23 miles.
