Which way to point your antenna in Geary

Point your antenna E, at about 95°. The main network towers for Geary sit in that direction, so a single directional antenna can pick them all up.

Five network stations, KWTV-DT, KOPX-TV, KAUT-TV, KFOR-TV and KTBO-TV, transmit from the same tower site about 47 miles east of Geary (93° E). Aim there first: one setting covers all of them.

Of the 8 full-power and Class A network signals that reach Geary at fair strength or better, all arrive from the east, so this is an easy place to aim.

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

Antenna and amplifier advice for Geary

The farthest main network tower for Geary is KOKH-TV (Fox), 47 miles away with a good estimated signal. That is why we suggest an outdoor directional antenna here. Skip that station and you may get away with a smaller antenna.

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.
