Which way to point your antenna in Lindsay

Point your antenna N, at about 7°. The main network towers for Lindsay sit in that direction, so a single directional antenna can pick them all up.

Seven network stations, KOKH-TV, KTUZ-TV, KOCO-TV, KOPX-TV and KAUT-TV and others, transmit from the same tower site about 50 miles north of Lindsay (7° N). Aim there first: one setting covers all of them.

Of the 9 full-power and Class A network signals that reach Lindsay at fair strength or better, 89% 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 Lindsay, so signals arrive fairly directly and a well-placed antenna should hold them steadily.

Antenna and amplifier advice for Lindsay

The farthest main network tower for Lindsay is KWTV-DT (CBS), 53 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.

Setting up an antenna in Lindsay: step by step

  1. Mount an outdoor antenna on the roof or a mast, as high as you can safely get it, with a clear view toward the towers.
  2. Point it toward 7° N, the direction of KWTV-DT (CBS), 53 miles away. Closer stations usually come in even off-axis.
  3. Run a full channel scan on your TV (usually Settings → Channels → Auto program; the name varies by brand).
  4. Expect around 14 stations, each with a few subchannels. If one you want is missing, turn the antenna 5–10° toward it and scan again.
  5. Rescan every few months, or whenever a channel disappears; stations occasionally change frequency.
