By distance, 14 transmitters are within 25 miles, 4 between 25 and 45 miles, and 20 farther out. Four of the 11 network stations in range are licensed to Scranton, so most of the network channels you will find here come from Scranton's stations.

Of the 10 full-power and Class A network signals that reach Duryea 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 Duryea, so signals arrive fairly directly and a well-placed antenna should hold them steadily.

The farthest main network tower for Duryea is WBRE-TV (NBC), 13 miles away with a good estimated signal. That is why we suggest an indoor antenna here.

WICZ-TV (Fox), 50 miles north, 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.

WQPX-TV is only 6.3 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.
