With roughly 163,000 residents, Eugene is a city in Oregon. Our map shows 87 licensed TV transmitters inside a 70-mile radius: 11 full-power, 3 Class A, 27 low-power and 46 translators. Based on each transmitter's power, antenna height and distance, 17 are likely to arrive at fair strength or better, and 10 at good or strong strength.

By distance, 25 transmitters are within 25 miles, 20 between 25 and 45 miles, and 42 farther out. Eugene is a broadcast hub in its own right: four of the 8 network stations in range are licensed here.

The best-placed network stations are ABC on channel 9 (KEZI), CBS on channel 13 (KVAL-TV), Fox on channel 34 (KLSR-TV) and CW on channel 16.2 (KMTR). No NBC affiliate is listed within 70 miles; the nearest one in our data is KOBI in Medford, OR, 94 miles to the south. 3 full-power stations in range have no network listed in our data; these are typically public television, religious, shopping or independent stations.

The main network towers around Eugene are in different directions: ABC 306° NW (28 mi), CBS 203° SSW (3.8 mi) and Fox 201° SSW (3.8 mi). Aim at the farthest one you want first, or use a multi-directional antenna.

Three network stations, KMTR, KVAL-TV and KLSR-TV, transmit from the same tower site about 3.8 miles southwest of Eugene (203° SSW). Point at that site and a single antenna setting picks them all up.

Of the 4 full-power and Class A network signals that reach Eugene at fair strength or better, 50% arrive from the southwest; the rest are spread across two other directions.

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

The farthest main network tower for Eugene is KEZI (ABC), 28 miles away with a fair estimated signal. That is why we suggest an amplified indoor or attic antenna here. If you only watch the closer stations, a smaller antenna may do.

KMTR is only 3.8 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.

With 17 stations at fair strength or better, Eugene ranks 93rd of 219 places in Oregon: more than the typical Oregon town (16). Its nearest major network tower is 3.8 miles away, against a state median of 20 miles.

47% of Oregon's cities and towns get the same recommendation: an amplified indoor or attic antenna.
