Over-the-air TV in Camp Hill

With roughly 7,920 residents, Camp Hill is a town in Pennsylvania. Within 70 miles of the town center we count 33 licensed TV transmitters: 16 full-power, 3 Class A, 10 low-power and 4 translators. Based on each transmitter's power, antenna height and distance, 17 are likely to arrive at fair strength or better, and 9 at good or strong strength.

By distance, 10 transmitters are within 25 miles, 2 between 25 and 45 miles, and 21 farther out. Five of the 11 network stations in range are licensed to Baltimore, MD, so most of the network channels you will find here come from Baltimore's stations.

The best-placed network stations are ABC on channel 27 (WHTM-TV), CBS on channel 13 (WJZ-TV), NBC on channel 8 (WGAL), Fox on channel 43 (WPMT), CW on channel 21.3 (WHP-TV) and Univision on channel 15 (WXBU). Spanish-language viewers can pick up Univision (strong signal). 5 full-power stations in range have no network listed in our data; these are typically public television, religious, shopping or independent stations.

Which way to point your antenna in Camp Hill

The main network towers around Camp Hill are in different directions: ABC 343° NNW (5.5 mi), NBC 132° SE (21 mi) and Fox 20° NNE (7.8 mi). Aim at the farthest one you want first, or use a multi-directional antenna.

Three network stations, WXBU, WHP-TV and WPMT, transmit from the same tower site about 7.8 miles north of Camp Hill (20° NNE). Point at that site and a single antenna setting picks them all up.

Of the 8 full-power and Class A network signals that reach Camp Hill at fair strength or better, 50% arrive from the north; the rest are spread across two other directions.

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

Antenna and amplifier advice for Camp Hill

The farthest main network tower for Camp Hill is WGAL (NBC), 21 miles away with a good estimated signal. That is why we suggest an indoor antenna here.

WJZ-TV (CBS), 64 miles south, is the exception: the nearest listed affiliate of its network is far enough away to need an outdoor antenna. Some local stations in our data carry no network tag, so check the other stations table below before buying a bigger antenna just for that one.

WXBU is only 7.8 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.

Setting up an antenna in Camp Hill: step by step

Place the antenna high on a window or wall that faces the towers. Upstairs is better than downstairs.
Point it toward 132° SE, the direction of WGAL (NBC), 21 miles away. Closer stations usually come in even off-axis.
Run a full channel scan on your TV (usually Settings → Channels → Auto program; the name varies by brand).
Expect around 17 stations, each with a few subchannels. If one you want is missing, turn the antenna 5–10° toward it and scan again.
Rescan every few months, or whenever a channel disappears; stations occasionally change frequency.
