TV channels & antenna towers in Mayfield, Ohio

Mayfield is a town of about 3,400 people in Ohio. Within 70 miles of the town center we count 37 licensed TV transmitters: 17 full-power, 2 Class A, 15 low-power and 3 translators. Based on each transmitter's power, antenna height and distance, 24 are likely to arrive at fair strength or better, and 12 at good or strong strength.

By distance, 19 transmitters are within 25 miles, 6 between 25 and 45 miles, and 12 farther out. Five of the 12 network stations in range are licensed to Cleveland, so most of the network channels you will find here come from Cleveland's stations.

The best-placed network stations are ABC on channel 5 (WEWS-TV), CBS on channel 19 (WOIO), NBC on channel 3 (WKYC), Fox on channel 27.2 (WKBN-TV), CW on channel 55 (WBNX-TV), ION on channel 23 (WVPX-TV), Telemundo on channel 6 (WTCL-LD) and Univision on channel 61 (WQHS-DT). Spanish-language viewers can pick up Telemundo (fair signal) and Univision (strong signal). 7 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 SW, at about 230°. The main network towers for Mayfield sit in that direction, so a single directional antenna can pick them all up.

Six network stations, WKYC, WBNX-TV, WQHS-DT, WOIO and WEWS-TV and others, transmit from the same tower site about 17 miles southwest of Mayfield (229° SW). That one direction covers every station on the site.

Of the 10 full-power and Class A network signals that reach Mayfield at fair strength or better, 60% arrive from the southwest; the rest are spread across two other directions.

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

The farthest main network tower for Mayfield is WEWS-TV (ABC), 19 miles away with a strong estimated signal. That is why we suggest an amplified indoor or attic antenna here.

WKBN-TV (Fox), 54 miles southeast, 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.

With 24 stations at fair strength or better, Mayfield ranks 80th of 686 places in Ohio: more than the typical Ohio town (18). Its nearest major network tower is 17 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 South Euclid, 4.6 miles away.
