Of the 5 full-power and Class A network signals that reach Lucasville at fair strength or better, all arrive from the southeast, so this is an easy place to aim.

WCHS-TV (ABC) lies beyond the radio horizon of its transmitter as seen from Lucasville. Past that point signals fade quickly, so antenna height matters more than amplification.

The farthest main network tower for Lucasville is WCHS-TV (ABC), 67 miles away with a fair estimated signal. That is why we suggest an outdoor directional antenna here. Viewers who do not need that station can often manage with less.

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.

With 11 stations at fair strength or better, Lucasville ranks 595th of 686 places in Ohio: fewer than the typical Ohio town (18). Its nearest major network tower is 49 miles away, against a state median of 16 miles.
