Four network stations, KOKI-TV, KOTV-DT, KJRH-TV and KQCW-DT, transmit from the same tower site about 6.5 miles east of Broken Arrow (106° ESE). Aim there first: one setting covers all of them.

Of the 8 full-power and Class A network signals that reach Broken Arrow at fair strength or better, 50% arrive from the east; the rest are spread across four other directions.

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

Antenna and amplifier advice for Broken Arrow

The farthest main network tower for Broken Arrow is KTUL (ABC), 11 miles away with a strong estimated signal. That is why we suggest an indoor antenna here. If you only watch the closer stations, a smaller antenna may do.

KOKI-TV is only 6.5 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.
