Which way to point your antenna in Millbury
Point your antenna NNE, at about 12°. The main network towers for Millbury sit in that direction, so a single directional antenna can pick them all up.
Two network stations, WUPW and WTVG, transmit from the same tower site about 6.3 miles north of Millbury (351° N). That one direction covers every station on the site.
Of the 6 full-power and Class A network signals that reach Millbury at fair strength or better, 83% arrive from the north; the rest are spread across one other direction.
All of the main network towers are within their radio horizon as seen from Millbury, so signals arrive fairly directly and a well-placed antenna should hold them steadily.
Antenna and amplifier advice for Millbury
The farthest main network tower for Millbury is WNWO-TV (NBC), 7.8 miles away with a strong estimated signal. That is why we suggest an indoor antenna here.
WXYZ-TV (ABC), 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.
WUPW is only 6.3 miles away with a strong signal. Signals that strong can overload an amplifier, so start without one and add it only if distant channels are missing. Read when an amplifier helps.
