TV channels & antenna towers in Holgate, Ohio

With roughly 1,100 residents, Holgate is a small community in Ohio. Our map shows 36 licensed TV transmitters inside a 70-mile radius: 15 full-power, 7 Class A, 11 low-power and 3 translators. Based on each transmitter's power, antenna height and distance, 18 are likely to arrive at fair strength or better, and 3 at good or strong strength.

2 of them are within 25 miles of Holgate, 11 sit 25 to 45 miles away and 23 are more than 45 miles out. Four of the 12 network stations in range are licensed to Toledo, so most of the network channels you will find here come from Toledo's stations.

The best-placed network stations are ABC on channel 35 (WPNM-CD), CBS on channel 15 (WANE-TV), NBC on channel 24 (WNWO-TV), Fox on channel 8.2 (WLIO) and CW on channel 33 (WISE-TV). 6 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 Holgate are in different directions: ABC 123° ESE (14 mi) and Fox 179° S (33 mi). Aim at the farthest one you want first, or use a multi-directional antenna.

Two network stations, WLIO and WOHL-CD, transmit from the same tower site about 33 miles south of Holgate (179° S). Point at that site and a single antenna setting picks them all up.

Of the 11 full-power and Class A network signals that reach Holgate at fair strength or better, 36% arrive from the northeast; the rest are spread across three other directions.

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

The farthest main network tower for Holgate is WLIO (Fox), 33 miles away with a fair estimated signal. That is why we suggest an amplified indoor or attic antenna here.

WANE-TV (CBS), 55 miles west and WNWO-TV (NBC), 50 miles northeast, 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.

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 18 stations at fair strength or better, Holgate ranks 294th of 686 places in Ohio: the same as the typical Ohio town (18). Its nearest major network tower is 14 miles away, against a state median of 16 miles.

58% of Ohio's cities and towns get the same recommendation: an amplified indoor or attic antenna. The nearest larger city is Bowling Green, 26 miles away.
