By distance, 17 transmitters are within 25 miles, 21 between 25 and 45 miles, and 37 farther out. Two of the 8 network stations in range are licensed to Asheville, so most of the network channels you will find here come from Asheville's stations.

The strongest network signals here are ABC on channel 13 (WLOS), CBS on channel 7 (WSPA-TV), NBC on channel 4 (WYFF), Fox on channel 21 (WHNS), CW on channel 5.2 (WCYB-TV) and MeTV on channel 36.1 (WAPK-CD). 7 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 Woodfin are in different directions: ABC 214° SW (17 mi), CBS 153° SSE (36 mi), NBC 182° S (36 mi) and Fox 190° S (32 mi). Aim at the farthest one you want first, or use a multi-directional antenna.

Two network stations, WSPA-TV and WYCW, transmit from the same tower site about 36 miles southeast of Woodfin (153° SSE). Point at that site and a single antenna setting picks them all up.

Of the 7 full-power and Class A network signals that reach Woodfin at fair strength or better, 29% arrive from the south; the rest are spread across three other directions.

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

The farthest main network tower for Woodfin is WYFF (NBC), 36 miles away with a good estimated signal. That is why we suggest an amplified indoor or attic antenna here. Viewers who do not need that station can often manage with less.

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.

With 25 stations at fair strength or better, Woodfin ranks 35th of 465 places in North Carolina: more than the typical North Carolina town (19). Its nearest major network tower is 17 miles away, against a state median of 23 miles.
