Which way to point your antenna in Edgeworth

Point your antenna ESE, at about 120°. The main network towers for Edgeworth sit in that direction, so a single directional antenna can pick them all up.

Three network stations, KDKA-TV, WPGH-TV and WPNT, transmit from the same tower site about 10.0 miles southeast of Edgeworth (113° ESE). Point at that site and a single antenna setting picks them all up.

Of the 12 full-power and Class A network signals that reach Edgeworth at fair strength or better, 33% arrive from the southeast; the rest are spread across three other directions.

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

Antenna and amplifier advice for Edgeworth

The farthest main network tower for Edgeworth is WTAE-TV (ABC), 28 miles away with a good estimated signal. That is why we suggest an amplified indoor or attic antenna here. Viewers who do not need that station can often manage with less.

KDKA-TV is only 10.0 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.

  2. Point it toward 132° SE, the direction of WTAE-TV (ABC), 28 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).

  5. Rescan every few months, or whenever a channel disappears; stations occasionally change frequency.
