Seven network stations, KOKH-TV, KTUZ-TV, KOCO-TV, KOPX-TV and KAUT-TV and others, transmit from the same tower site about 31 miles northwest of Bethel Acres (303° WNW). That one direction covers every station on the site.

Antenna and amplifier advice for Bethel Acres

The farthest main network tower for Bethel Acres is KWTV-DT (CBS), 33 miles away with a good estimated signal. That is why we suggest an amplified indoor or attic antenna here. Viewers who do not need that station can often manage with less.

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.
