Which way to point your antenna in Mustang

Point your antenna NE, at about 46°. The main network towers for Mustang sit in that direction, so a single directional antenna can pick them all up.

Seven network stations, KOKH-TV, KOCO-TV, KTUZ-TV, KOPX-TV and KAUT-TV and others, transmit from the same tower site about 18 miles northeast of Mustang (49° NE). That one direction covers every station on the site.

Of the 9 full-power and Class A network signals that reach Mustang at fair strength or better, 89% arrive from the northeast; the rest are spread across one other direction.

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

Antenna and amplifier advice for Mustang

The farthest main network tower for Mustang is KWTV-DT (CBS), 20 miles away with a strong estimated signal. That is why we suggest an indoor antenna here. Skip that station and you may get away with a smaller antenna.

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.

  2. Point it toward 42° NE, the direction of KWTV-DT (CBS), 20 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).
