By distance, 0 transmitters are within 25 miles, 4 between 25 and 45 miles, and 39 farther out. Six of the 18 network stations in range are licensed to Pittsburgh, so most of the network channels you will find here come from Pittsburgh's stations.

Four network stations, WICU-TV, WSEE-TV, WFXP and WJET-TV, transmit from the same tower site about 67 miles northwest of Clarion (329° NNW). That one direction covers every station on the site.

Of the 7 full-power and Class A network signals that reach Clarion at fair strength or better, 57% arrive from the southwest; the rest are spread across two other directions.

WYTV (ABC), KDKA-TV (CBS), WPXI (NBC) and WKBN-TV (Fox) lie beyond the radio horizon of their transmitter as seen from Clarion. Past that point signals fade quickly, so antenna height matters more than amplification.

The farthest main network tower for Clarion is WKBN-TV (Fox), 66 miles away with a fair 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.

With 10 stations at fair strength or better, Clarion ranks 908th of 1,015 places in Pennsylvania: fewer than the typical Pennsylvania town (24). Its nearest major network tower is 59 miles away, against a state median of 16 miles.
