TV channels & antenna towers in Georgetown, Ohio

Georgetown, Ohio has a population of about 4,450. Our map shows 28 licensed TV transmitters inside a 70-mile radius: 20 full-power, 6 low-power and 2 translators. Based on each transmitter's power, antenna height and distance, 18 are likely to arrive at fair strength or better, and 6 at good or strong strength.

By distance, 1 transmitter is within 25 miles, 11 between 25 and 45 miles, and 16 farther out. Four of the 13 network stations in range are licensed to Cincinnati, so most of the network channels you will find here come from Cincinnati's stations.

For the networks, the best local options are ABC on channel 9 (WCPO-TV), CBS on channel 7 (WHIO-TV), NBC on channel 5 (WLWT), Fox on channel 19 (WXIX-TV), CW on channel 26 (WBDT), ION on channel 43 (WKOI-TV) and Telemundo on channel 25 (WBQC-LD). Spanish-language viewers can pick up Telemundo (weak signal). 8 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 WNW, at about 299°. The main network towers for Georgetown sit in that direction, so a single directional antenna can pick them all up.

Three network stations, WKRC-TV, WCPO-TV and WLWT, transmit from the same tower site about 37 miles northwest of Georgetown (299° WNW). That one direction covers every station on the site.

Of the 10 full-power and Class A network signals that reach Georgetown 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 Georgetown, so signals arrive fairly directly and a well-placed antenna should hold them steadily.

The farthest main network tower for Georgetown is WXIX-TV (Fox), 39 miles away with a good estimated signal. That is why we suggest an amplified indoor or attic antenna here.

WHIO-TV (CBS), 63 miles north, 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.
