Which way to point your antenna in Maud
Point your antenna NW, at about 307°. The main network towers for Maud 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 northwest of Maud (306° NW). Point at that site and a single antenna setting picks them all up.
Of the 9 full-power and Class A network signals that reach Maud at fair strength or better, 89% arrive from the northwest; the rest are spread across one other direction.
All of the main network towers are within their radio horizon as seen from Maud, so signals arrive fairly directly and a well-placed antenna should hold them steadily.
Antenna and amplifier advice for Maud
The farthest main network tower for Maud is KWTV-DT (CBS), 52 miles away with a good estimated signal. That is why we suggest an outdoor directional antenna here. If you only watch the closer stations, a smaller antenna may do.
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.
